Hi there! There are a few things going on here. You are missing a set of curly braces, you have a syntax error, and your code is a bit misplaced. So, let's take it one error at a time.

In many cases, CSS is not particular about whitespace, but that is not always the case. Sometimes a single space can break your code, and that is happening here.

You typed:

@ media screen and (min-width:480px)

But you meant to type:

@media screen and (min-width:480px)

// Note the removal of the space between the "@" and the "media"

Secondly, you are missing a set of curly braces. Your h1 rule has a set, but a media query also needs its own set.

@media screen and (min-width:480px) {
  // Write your rule here
}

Finally, your code is a bit misplaced. Remember the cascading nature of CSS. If you fix the above errors but keep it where it is, it will be overwritten by the code below it. Make sure to place your media query at the bottom of the file.

Hope this helps! :sparkles:
