Crush the Rebellion |
Ten rebel encampments have sprung up on the plane of Usyan. The Martian
Federation plans to send flying saucers to deal with them. They are pretty
ruthless. They will simply land on top of the encampments. The encampments
are small and the saucers are huge. It must be done simultaneously, or the
rebels will flee. Also, the saucers must not overlap when they land. Can the
Martians prevail?
Mathematically the encampments are points in the plane and the saucers are non-overlapping disks of equal radius.
