Story
British Scientists Inscribe Human Genome on 5D Crystal for Long-Term Data Storage and DNA Computer
Sep 19, 2024, 04:19 AM
Researchers at the University of Southampton, along with British scientists, have successfully inscribed a full human genome onto a 5D crystal using lasers. This ultra-durable crystal, capable of lasting billions of years, represents a significant breakthrough in data storage technology. The crystal's ability to store DNA data could potentially be used to restore humanity in the event of extinction. This innovation combines advanced data storage with problem-solving capabilities, marking a pivotal moment in tech innovation, including the development of a DNA computer.
