24 discs
engraved with a unique technology
UP TO 7 BILLION PIXELS PER DISC
NEARLY 100 BILLIONS TOTAL PIXELS
Disc .01
SPACE
Aether, Space and the air that surrounds us. From stellar maps to cosmic microwave background, organ music filling the realm, from ancient cultures to Galilei and Apollo, the history of humankind longing to get a grasp for outer space and the sky that surrounds us.
Disc .02
Life
From birth to death and everything in between. A comprehensive disc that unveils the wonders of life, exploring the biology, sex, DNA, birth, death, and life expectancy of all living beings on earth.
Disc .03
Water
From the depths of the oceans to the clouds above! Everything water, including its properties, ecology, weather patterns, transportation, and the impact of human activity on this precious resource.
Disc .04
Matter
Johann Wolfgang von Goethes quote "So that I may perceive whatever holds, the world together in its inmost folds," is the theme or our Matter disc. Atomic bonds, fundamental chemistry and the everlasting longing to perceive the world and our universe in its entirety.
Disc .06
Female genome (1)
A fully sequenced and assembled female genome sequenced at Canada’s Michael Smith Genome Sciences Center. This is our biological recipe and an archive. Embedded in the genome assemblies are millions of single base pair changes observed across the world’s population. Together with the genomes, these represent natural variation between populations and individuals.
Disc .07
Female genome (2)
Disc .08
Male genome (1)
Fully sequenced and assembled male genome
Disc .09
Male genome (2)

“As I take man’s last step from the surface... I’d like to just say what I believe history will record.
That America’s challenge of today has forged man’s destiny of tomorrow.“
