Hi Maveryx,
A solution to last week’s challenge can be found here.

Meteorite showers are a captivating natural phenomenon, though it can be challenging to see them depending on your location. Fortunately, residents and visitors in the Las Vegas area enjoy an advantageous position, being in proximity to expansive desert skies that offer excellent conditions for meteorite watching.
For this challenge, your mission is to plan a budget-friendly meteorite impact site tour near Las Vegas, ensuring enthusiasts visit locations where they have the best opportunity to witness this celestial spectacle.
Here are the tasks you must complete. Calculate all distances in kilometers.
- Find a meteorite impact site that is closest to a hotel that costs less than $200 per night. Designate this location as the "First Stop."
- Identify the nearest meteorite impact site in relation to the First Stop. Label this site as the "Second Stop" and determine the distance between the first and second stops.
- Locate the nearest meteorite impact site in relation to the Second Stop. Name this site “Third Stop” and determine the distance between the second and third stops.
- Calculate the total distance traveled from the hotel to the third stop.
Data Summary:
You have two datasets. The text dataset contains the latitude and longitude of some hotels in Las Vegas with their cost per night. The second dataset, meteorite-landings.csv, contains the latitude and longitude of over 45,000 meteorites that have struck our planet.
