A new screw-driven robot prototype can autonomously navigate and mine rocky planets like Mars using Archimedean screws, ideal for challenging surfaces like sand and snow. Developed with EU support, it holds potential for extraterrestrial mining missions.
4 grams of DNA can hold all of the world's data: 1.8 zettabytes. Scientist have been able to store and retrieve data from DNA in experiments, proving organic data storage can be possible.
