🚨 SCIENTISTS JUST CREATED A 5D GLASS DISC THAT CAN STORE 360 TERABYTES AND LAST FOR BILLIONS OF YEARS.
Researchers have developed a revolutionary data storage technology: a tiny glass disc that can hold 360 terabytes of information (roughly 100,000 times the capacity of a standard DVD) and survive extreme conditions for billions of years.
The disc uses ultrafast lasers to etch five-dimensional nanoscale structures inside fused silica glass. These five dimensions include three spatial coordinates plus two additional dimensions based on light polarization and intensity allowing incredibly dense and stable data encoding.
Why this matters:
• The disc has been tested at temperatures up to 1,000°C and under intense radiation with zero data degradation
• It could preserve humanity’s most important knowledge (libraries, archives, scientific records) for future civilizations
• Unlike magnetic or optical discs that degrade in decades, this technology offers true “forever” storage
• Potential applications include long-term climate data, astronomical archives, and cultural heritage preservation
The deeper implication is enormous:
We are moving from fragile, short-lived digital storage to something that could literally outlast human civilization itself.
For the first time, we have a practical way to create permanent archives of our species’ knowledge that could survive the rise and fall of empires.
What would you choose to preserve on one of these discs for the next 10,000 years?

@ValerieAnne1970 If these ticks haven’t been genetically modified to resistant as well. If they’re gonna be genetically modified to attack us, they’re gonna be also fortified genetically. If indeed, Bill Gates is at fault, why isn’t somebody doing something?
@ai_rohitt The director (camera coverage) is terrible. It's so distracting. Like a college kid doing their first video. Very bad. If you know what claude code is, this is a great way to start.
@CitizenFreePres I think every member of Congress and anyone in the government should be able to cite this pledge by heart before they can take office. And not speed or speed quoted, but from the heart.
Ever walked away from prayer feeling like God just told you to tough it out? That's a misreading of His actual words. His grace isn't a command to endure, it's a promise to carry you through. https://t.co/3ZYChPHz7t
