The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has partnered with Lonestar, a Florida-based computing start-up, and the autonomous British Crown Dependency of the Isle of Man in the Irish Sea to jointly develop a new data storage solution that uses blockchain to securely store data on the moon. The aim is to use blockchain to ensure data security and prevent tampering, and to prove that the information stored in the archive is authentic, while improving the accuracy and transparency of data for organizations and space agencies involved in lunar exploration. Analysts believe that NASA's plan to establish a blockchain-based data center on the moon may be aimed at protecting humanity's most important discoveries and creations from the impact of Earth disasters.
