“We could put the whole world’s knowledge in 4 grams of DNA”

While not the first project to demonstrate the potential of DNA storage, Church’s team married next-generation sequencing technology with a novel strategy to encode 1,000 times the largest amount of data previously stored in DNA.
The researchers used binary code to preserve the text, images and formatting of the book at a density of 5.5 petabits (1 million gigabits) per cubic millimeter. “The information density and scale compare favourably with other experimental storage methods from biology and physics,” said Sri Kosuri, a senior scientist at the Wyss Institute and senior author on the paper. The team also included Yuan Gao, a former Wyss postdoc who is now an associate professor of biomedical engineering at Johns Hopkins University.
And where some experimental media — like quantum holography — require incredibly cold temperatures and tremendous energy, DNA is stable at room temperature. “You can drop it wherever you want, in the desert or your backyard, and it will be there 400,000 years later,” Church said.

I agree with Marianinia for sure, we have all the info we need within us, we just have to tap into it more and trust the answers are within our hearts and souls and really listen and not depend on others to give you the answers. NDE (near death experience) reseachers have documented from thousands of near death experiencers that when people go through a light tunnel and come out at the other side when they are clinically dead that instantly it is like every question one has wondered in a lifetime becomes answered and everything is so clear. I can vouch for that because that experience happened to me three times when I was clinically dead and medically revived. (guess it really was not my time, and I got upset about making it back to 3D I will tell you) I had very profound NDE experiences and remember a lot about them, and the one of the memories that I have not forgotten is the feeling of all of a sudden knowing all of lifes mysteries and how it all made sense all at once and was like a HUGE ahha moment. But when revived and brought back (from whereever it is that you go) that you do not get to keep the answers because that is one of the purpose of 3D living is to find the answers to the questions that you have as part of your spiritual growth. So always look within for answers and it does not matter whether others feel the answers you come to are right". Your heart will tell you what it is you need to know and learn.
