British Scientists Store Human Genome on 5D Crystal Using Femtosecond Lasers
Sep 19, 2024, 08:02 AM
Researchers at the University of Southampton have successfully inscribed a full human genome onto a 5D crystal using ultra-fast femtosecond lasers. This breakthrough in data storage technology involves creating 5-dimensional storage within fused quartz, which is capable of lasting billions of years. The ultra-durable crystal could potentially be used to preserve DNA data for future use in restoring humanity in the event of extinction. British scientists believe this next-generation data storage, known as 5D memory crystals, is almost indestructible, providing a reliable means to store vital genetic information for the long term.
