Human genome, 5D memory crystal
Scientists store entire human genome on ‘memory crystal’ that could survive billions of years
Scientists in the United Kingdom have stored the entire human genome on a “5D memory crystal,” in the hope that it could be used in the future as a blueprint to bring humanity back from extinction.
In case of extinction, scientists store human genome on a ‘memory crystal’ that lasts billions of years
For now, the human genome-encoded “5D memory crystal” is stored in the Memory of Mankind archive, a time capsule project located within the world’s oldest salt mine in Hallstatt, Austria. If all goes as planned, it will remain until potentially needed—hopefully never.
