Will not render to web browser

With the code below I can not get it to render to the webpage. The only thing i've noticed is the code snippet 

ReactDOM.render()

when looking at render() in workspace it is not have the proper syntax highlighting like it should. This leads me to believe there is something before it causing an issue for render() not to be recognized in turn not allowing it to show up in the browser. 

// =============================================================
//   WRITE YOUR CODE BELOW
// =============================================================

// 1: Create a 'Planet' component that renders a planet card
const Planet = (props)=> {
  return (
    <div className="card">
      <div><img src={props.img} alt={props.name}/></div>
      <h2>{props.name}</h2>
      <p>{props.desc}</p>
      <h3>Planet Profile</h3>
      <ul>
        <li><strong>Diameter:</strong>{props.diameter}</li>
        <li><strong>Moons:</strong>{props.moons}</li>
      </ul>
    </div>
  );
}

// 2: Create a container component that iterates over the planets array 
//    and renders a 'Planet' component for each object in the array 
const Container = (props)=> {
  return (
  <div className="container">
  props.planets.map( planet=> 
    <Planet 
      key={planet.id} 
      name={planet.name} 
      diameter={planet.diameter} 
      moons={planet.moons} 
      desc={planet.desc} 
      img={planet.url}
    />
  )
  );
}

// 3: Render the container component to the DOM
ReactDOM.render(
  <Container planets={planets}/>, document.getElementById('root')  
)

Hi, you're missing the curly brackets for the iterator in the container component (javascript expressions must be enclosed in curly brackets). Also, the div tag needs to be closed.

It should look something like this.

const Container = (props)=> {
  return (
  <div className="container">
  {props.planets.map( planet=> 
    <Planet 
      key={planet.id} 
      name={planet.name} 
      diameter={planet.diameter} 
      moons={planet.moons} 
      desc={planet.desc} 
      img={planet.url}
    />
  )}
  </div>
  );
}

Hope this has helped :)
