5D memory crystal at the University of Southampton stores entire human genome, preserving for billions of years.
Scientists from the University of Southampton have stored the entire human genome on a durable 5D memory crystal, which can last billions of years.
This crystal, capable of holding up to 360 terabytes of data, withstands extreme temperatures, radiation, and impacts.
It could serve as a repository for genomic data, potentially aiding in the revival of extinct species and preserving endangered genomes.
The crystal is part of the Memory of Mankind archive in Austria.
