In this practice, you will need to define in which sector it is possible to carry out a reconnaissance mission in accordance with the amount of fuel that the spacecraft has. You can do so by calculating the perimeter of the irregular polygon formed by each sector. The simulation recreates the cockpit of a spacecraft with a screen displaying the different sectors, a flight screen, and a trajectory screen.
