Scientists have found way to store images into just a photon. For those who know physics (quantum physics) well, you should know what a photon is. In plain English, a photon, which is an extremely tiny particle that makes up light.
Just imagine, images of thousands or millions of pixels can be stored only on a single photon, which means we’d get some kind of optical storage drive in the future (could be in few years time or shorter), which allows us to store tremendous amount of data!
