When I googled “Marie Tharp” the first three distinct sources that showed up were Wikipedia, The Mariners’ Museum and Park, and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. Out of these three I know I would look last at Wikipedia, just because I know it is not the most reliable source in general, since anyone can edit what is said on there. However, from the looks of it I would rely more on the Mariners Museum and park website, just from looking briefly you can notice that there’s a bibliography which probes this can be a reliable source for information. I would also trust Woods Hole oceanographic institution because just from the website you can see it ends in. Edu, meaning this is an educational website, and usually would be able to provide reliable information.

Reading about Marie Tharp I found that she contributed to the discovery of plate tectonics by Ocean floor mapping and making observations, she was able to discover that there was a Rift Valley and that’s what led to her forming the theory of continental drift and/or sea floor spreading.

It might be important to revisit this historic information about Marie Tharp contribution because she was in a male dominated industry where it was not even allowed for women to be even on boats and whilst she found a way to manage and work through that to complete her work on mapping the ocean floor.

Three distinct sources that showed up for Marie Tharp are Science Magazine, The Mariner’s Museum and Park, and Wikipedia. I believe Wikipedia is an untrustworthy website to use to research information.

Wikipedia is a website that any user can edit the information that may be inaccurate. Also, Wikipedia is not a trustworthy source because it does not have an author or date, thus lacking reliability.

On the other hand, a news site I found may have accurate and trustworthy information is the Science Magazine. The Science Magazine has accurate and unbiased information because the website describes Marie Tharp’s biography. I think I can identify if a website may be an untrustworthy source by the timeline, author, and the website it was written on.
