5D glass optical memory could record last of civilization

So we can record how we screwed up the planet and caused our civilization's demise as a warning to visitors or future civilizations who grow back and forget what happened. lol

5D optical memory in glass could record the last evidence of civilization
July 10, 2013

Using nanostructured glass, scientists at the University of Southampton have, for the first time, experimentally demonstrated the recording and retrieval processes of five dimensional digital data by femtosecond laser writing. The storage allows unprecedented parameters including 360 TB/disc data capacity, thermal stability up to 1000°C and practically unlimited lifetime.

Coined as the 'Superman' memory crystal, as the glass memory has been compared to the "memory crystals" used in the Superman films, the data is recorded via self-assembled nanostructures created in fused quartz, which is able to store vast quantities of data for over a million years.
