Co-founder of Arch Mission Foundation, Nova Spivack backed the mission and claimed it was aimed to help save humanity from its own “past mistakes”.
He said: “One of the primary evolutionary challenges that we face is amnesia about our past mistakes, and the lack of active countermeasures to repeating them.
“For the survival of our species, we need to find ways to raise our awareness of what worked and didn’t work, and we need to ensure it is shared with the people of the future.”
The archive which was facilitated by Elon Musk, is estimated to last at least six billion years.
