 In the project I learned that bubbles have happened many times through out the course of human history and that as much as we might try they will continue to occur.  In order to narrow the project down I focused on the Tulip bubble, the South Sea bubble, the Dot-Com bubble, and lastly the Housing bubble.  The tulip bubble was the first bubble recorded in history and involved tulips with crazy patterns rising in price to the point where they became financial investments. As people kept buying them the price went up and up. Eventually without more people to buy the tulips the price crashed back down.  The South sea bubble was created by the lack of investment opportunities available to British people in the 18th century. This lead to ridiculous businesses being created in order to generate hype around the stock. Eventually all of the companies stock crashed once people ran out of more investors.  The Dot-Com bubble was created by the craze around any company that could use or take advantage of the internet. This again lead to crazy companies being created and their stock driven up until it crashes back to earth.  Finally the housing bubble was created by the increased amount of buyers as a result of the changing in lending practices.  Eventually the loans prevented many people from being able to buy more houses driving the price of the housing market back down.

+This milestone focuses on Louis Bleriot and Hubert Latham two pioneering pilots in the field of aviation. I started this project only know Louis Bleriot's name I assumed that he was the only one to attempt something as dangerous as crossing the English Channel in a vehicle that had only been around shortly at the time. However, in my research I found that multiple people were building airplanes in order to compete for the Daily Mail prize and incentive to inventors and pilots to attempt the channel. The two main competitors were Louis Bleriot and Hubert Latham because they were the only ones who actually attempted the challenge.  I also assumed that any of the competitors would be smart pioneering inventors pushing the limits of their technology. However, Hubert Latham was a rich playboy with a background in boat racing who happened to be considerably gifted at flying airplanes. In the end I learned that the hard work Louis Bleriot put in designing and building his many planes set him up for success and he was awake for good weather and was able to cross why Latham was still sleeping.

+After researching the Battle of Britain, the biggest thing I learned was Hitler's goal in bombing Britain. Hitler desired to conquer Britain and end resistance to his rule in Europe. In order to send he soldiers across the channel he decided that the Germans needed to obtain air superiority over Britain which started the bombing raids targeting Royal Air Force bases.  Eventually, Germany shifted to bombing cities like London in what became know as the Blitz. I learned that the key to Britain's victory over Germany was a result of their radar system that detected incoming bombers and then sent the info down to the closest airfield to sample fighers to intercept the Germans.
