Gulp!

Only problem is: if there is a cataclysmic event on Earth, how should the few survivors then get up the moon and retrieve the backups? :) Maybe in a far away future, for example the year 20001, they make it up there and find this black blocky thing that NASA and ESA once have buried up there...

we also need an insurance that safeguards against the knowledge covered by the backup is not the same knowledge that made man causing the cataclysmic event himself, else history would repeat itself in the future... :lol: Or should the "manual for increasing global wamrting and wage thermonuclear war" be inlcuded in that library, for the sake of cultural completeness and politcally correct avoidance of supressing free speech and free expression of opinion? :D

I guess it's cheaper and easier than digging a very deep hole.

Just chuck a wiki server up there!

There are several "seed bunkers" scattered deep under bedrock around the world. They contain seeds from important food crops in case of the aftermath of nuclear Armageddon.

Good to see someones got humanity's back coverd.
