Human genome stored for 'eternity' in 5D memory crystal in a salt cave in Austria .
Fused silica can withstand temperatures of up to 1000C , force up to 10 tons per cm2, and cosmic radiation.
The data writing process involves shining a femtosecond laser at the fused silica storage medium to create pits that contain "nanograting" structures as small as 20 nm that refract light.
The crystal can also accommodate high-resolution graphics, so instructions for post-apocalypse re-industrialization, semiconductor competency, and optical engineering are available to those who want to read the data.
Microsoft and University of Southampton collaborated on Project Silica project.
Kazansky has launched a spin-off venture called SPhotonix LLC to bring the technology to market.
