"A complete digital copy of this book was written in DNA and packaged into a stainless steel capsule, where it will live for tens of fhousands of years. 1. CATALOG, a DNA computing company in Boston, converted the full text of this book into the As, Ts, Cs, and Gs used to build DNA molecules, thus transferring digital information info strings of atoms. One thousand copies of the DNA book were made. 2. The DNA molecules were packaged into laser-sealed, stainless steel capsules under an inert atmosphere by Imagene, a long—term biostorage company in France, protecting them from air, humidity, and all contaminants. Within the DNAshelI® capsules, the DNA will survive for tens of thousands of years without decay. 3. A capsule was shipped to Plasmidsaurus, a rapid DNA sequencing company in California. The capsule was opened upon arrival and the DNA inside was reconstituted in water and then "read" using a nanopore sequencing device. 4. The complete DNA sequence encoding this book was uploaded to they Internet."--Book introduction.
