Crystal Superman´memories is created

A team of researchers from the University of Southamptom , UK , created a crystal capable of storing digital
information in five dimensions , beyond the three conventional space , plus two extras using nanostructures ( structures at the level of the atom in the order of 10-9 meter) .
These devices can reach the capacity of 360TB of data stored , equivalent to one million times larger than a CD , for example , 360 GB , assuming it has a display device and projection, one childhood memory of Superman, would practically possible now .
Because of the similarity with the film , the device is already called “crystal memory of Superman ” because the crystals resembles memory movie Superman .
According to Professor project supervisor , Pete Kazansky : it is ” exciting to think that was created the first ‘ document ‘ able to survive the human race ” as this ” this technology can store the latest evidence of civilization : what has been learned will not be forgotten ” , and under normal conditions will keep the information for 1 million years .
The paper ‘5D Data Storage by Ultrafast Laser Nanostructuring in Glass’ was presented in Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics (CLEO’13) in San Jose.
