import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
public class LandingActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
public Button thrustButton;
public TextView typeLabel;
public EditText passengersField;
public Spaceship spaceship;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_landing);
thrustButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.thrustButton);
typeLabel = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.typeTextView);
passengersField = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.passengersEditText);
// Add your code here!
spaceship = new Spaceship("FIREFLY");
typeLabel.setText(spaceship.getShipType());

The passengerField.setText() method requires a String, but you're passing an int. You could instead pass
passengerField.setText(spaceship.getNumPassengers() + "");
// OR LIKE THIS
passengerField.setText(String.valueOf(spaceship.getNumPassengers());
