In this course, you will learn about the Python programming language in the context of mechanical and aerospace engineering. 

You will start with the basics of Python, like variables, collections, and different types of loops. Once you have the basics out of the way, the real fun begins. You will learn how to: graph thrust available and thrust required, graph dynamic pressure during a rocket launch, and how to plot airfoil coordinates. 

Towards the end, you will get a strong overview of orbital parameters and learn how to model both 2D and 3D static orbits. Once you’ve completed this course, you will have a better understanding of Python and how it works in the context of mechanical/aerospace engineering.

You could probably adjust the x-axis a little more to remove some of the whitespaces, but the first graph looks good, and it will help to have space later.

You want to create three subplots to be shown that represent each altitude, so you need to tell `Matplotlib` that you want to make subplots. After the inputs but before the sea level code, add:

```python
plt.subplot(3, 1, 1)
```

You are telling `Matplotlib` that you intend to have 3 rows and 1 column, and this section is the first subplot you are creating. The graph, when complete, should look something like this:

|   |Column 1|
| - | - |
|Row 1|Sea Level graph|
|Row 2|10,000 ft graph|
|Row 3|FL350 graph|


Develop a graph for thrust required and thrust available at 10,000 ft.
