Mission

Journey into the Mind!

In a 1966 movie based on a story by Otto Klement and Jerome Bixby, Fantastic Voyage,  4 men and 1 woman take a voyage into an injured human being. They were miniaturized along with their submarine and then injected into the patient. The plan was to travel through the body to the brain where they would do laser surgery in a totally inaccessible region of the brain through conventional surgery. Isaac Asimov was hired to write the book which was released 6 months prior movie which gave people the idea that the movie was based on the book. 

So in the spirit of the Fantastic Voyage, this year's AURC mission is Journey into the Mind!  Teams will have to navigate through the human body to the brain to save the patient.
