Today's Cnn 10 was about the world's biggest economy. Whenever GDP grows that is a good sign. The US has one of the biggest economy and GDP on the planet. From the year 2020, the US Commerce Department just reported that the nation's gross domestic product stood at $20.9 trillion. The bad news is that the year before, it was stood at $21.4 trillion that means that it dropped more than 3% from 2019-2020. It was represented for America's worst economic decline since 1946. It was caused by the Coronavirus Pandemic. The chairman of the Federal Reserve America's central bank says what will happen with the economy going forward.

Today’s CNN was about the US economy‘s GDP shrinking down because of COVID-19, and the lockdown.The GDP is the total value of all the goods and services a country produce, and from 2019-2020, America went down by 3%.I think that it would be normal that the GDP would shrink considering that everyone was on lockdown, and didn‘t go out as much.Mars’s Olympus Mons is the tallest mountain in the solar system.Since the 1900’s NASA has launched more than 16 missions for the red planet.NASA will be launching a rover to Mars, and it will be taking pictures, along with a helicopter, if everything goes right.I think that spending billions of dollars for a rover is a bit overdone, but I’m…

The gross domestic product is the total value of all the goods and services a country produces (the graph says the GDP fell by three percent from 2019 to 2020). Quiz thing (Mars has the tallest mountain in the solar system ). Surfing is in the "Hawaii's Banzai Pipeline". A new probe is just weeks away from landing on Mars.


I find the most important thing to be the fact that the gross domestic product fell by three percent from 2019 to 2020. The drop was important to graph.


I disagree about that fact that the tallest mountain in the solar system is Mars, because I don't know about Mars and the solar system so I can't agree on this…

COVID-19 started in January, 2024 and spread all over the world within 1 year. About the Wuhan being the starting point of the virus, China defensively said that the Trump administration was deflecting blame for its own mishandling. The Chinese government kept the spread of covid-19 a secret which made the virus spread more.


The most important thing is that if the local official did not keep the pandemic a secret, there could've been less damage. I agree that the olympic got postponed because of concerns about the pandemic because there is nothing bad to be careful and concerned. I found interesting that if the olympic doesn't take place this year, it will be canceled instead of being postponed again.
