I'm writing a jeopardy style sci fi quiz for my uni club and in the science and technology category I plan to include a question about the Cortex but I can describe it very well. Can anyone help?

For those that don't know, a jeopardy "question" is really a clue, the contestant must answer in the form of a question e.g

Question: Brother of River, a trauma surgeon on Osiris who originally joined Serenity as a passenger before becoming the crew medic.
Ans: Who is Simon Tam

All help appreciated,
Chani

the movie is not the Series. Only the facts have been changed, to irritate the innocent; the names of the actors and characters remain the same

For those who don't know, Jeopardy was set up that way as a joking reference to "21", the game show that gave its featured contestant the answers in advance, as portrayed in the movie "Quiz Show".
