Science Fiction Made Real: Fantastic Voyage Sub!

[Tuckerfan]

Raquel Welch is not included, however.

Ever since the 1966 Hollywood movie, doctors have imagined a real-life Fantastic Voyage a medical vehicle shrunk small enough to “submarine” in and fix faulty cells in the body. Thanks to new research by Tel Aviv University scientists, that reality may be only three years away.

The blueprints for the submarine and a map of its proposed maiden voyage were published earlier this year in Science by Dr. Dan Peer, who now leads the Tel Aviv University team at the Department of Cell Research and Immunology. The team will build and test-run the actual “machine” in human bodies. Dr. Peer originally developed the scenario at Harvard University.

Combine it with this guy’s idea (asuming it works, of course), and it looks like we’ve got a winner.

I’ve always wondered why this movie has never been re-made with modern special effects. Instead, maybe they’ll be able to do it with CGI!
