Think Differently Innovation through constructive conflict Air Universitys Project Mercury 7.22.21

Deploying long range autonomous drones, reinventing messaging and communications, and designing an Arctic rescue game are only three of the ideas presented at the Air University "Project Mercury" Cohort 4 Innovation Showcase.
