Glass Disc, Data Storage Media Five Dimensions
How many photos or maybe selfie that you store in your smartphone?
how important and valuable it is? if you keep it in your smartphone or cloud computing.
There is a possibility that you store the data could be lost or damaged due to your smartphone may get lost or damaged, and the data you store in the cloud could be lost or even cloud service providers you experience a disaster in their own data center.
Because the photo album may be fading, decaying books and even hard drives also damaged. Scientists from the University of Southampton in the UK have created a data storage medium that can store data up to billions of years. Called the "Five-dimensional glass" which was first shown in the form of research papers in 2013.
"We can encode anything just give us the file and we can print it". says Aabid Patel , an alumni who entered the study.
Glass Storage disc can store up to 360 terabytes of data, and can survive in temperatures up to 1,000 Celsius.and is expected to keep the data for 13.8 billion years indoor temperature 190 centigrade.
So far scientists have already "preserve" of important documents such as the "Universal declaration of human rights" or general statements about human rights.
Scientists are now looking for a company to market this technology to the public.
"Who knows what's going to happen thousand of years down in the line, no one can Predict that, but what we can guarantee is that we have the ability to store the culture, language, and essence of the human race in a simple piece of glass, for future civilizations, or what else is out there "says Patel.
(Who can guess what will happen thousands of years from now, no one could, but we can guarantee that we have the ability to save the culture, the language and the essence of humanity in a glass to the future of civilization or anything out there)
