This Arch library will orbit the Sun for at least millions of years alongside Elon’s Tesla Roadster. Peter Kazansky and his team, at the University of Southampton, Optoelectronics Research Centre. The Arch library that was included on the Falcon Heavy today was created using a new technology, 5D optical storage in quartz, developed by our advisor Dr. Here is a short video about what the Arch Mission is doing: Watch as SpaceX describes the inclusion of the Arch payload during their launch event here : We are eternally grateful to Elon Musk and his incredible team for advocating the Arch Mission Foundation and giving us our first ride into space.
We are very happy to announce that our first Arch library, containing the Isaac Asimov Foundation Trilogy, was carried as payload on today’s SpaceX Falcon Heavy launch, enroute to permanent orbit around the Sun. We plan to use many media types over time however - whatever material is the best available for the goal. Our first Arch libraries are data crystals that last billions of years. To accomplish this we have begun building special Arch ™ libraries (pronounced: “Arks”). We exist to preserve and disseminate humanity’s knowledge across time and space, for the benefit of future generations.
