Just imagine 4 billion years from now and your technology would be undamaged. This is what it could look like at CERN headquarters.... :)
CERNs LHC accelerator will have the coldest temperatures in the universe when its superconductor magnets start up next year.
The European Organization for Nuclear Research (French: Organisation européenne pour la recherche nucléaire), known as CERN, is the world's largest particle physics laboratory, situated in the northwest suburbs of Geneva on the franco-Swiss border.
The organisation is currently the workplace of approximately 2600 full-time employees. Some 7931 scientists and engineers (representing 500 universities and 80 nationalities), about half of the world's particle physics community, work on experiments conducted at CERN.

"Wandering the Immeasurable [by Gayle Hermick] is a beautiful, bending behemoth of a sculpture that symbolizes how knowledge is passed among people. The sculpture ends abruptly, part of it extended as if waiting for future discoveries to be added on.
If you look closely at the curved metal ribbon, you’ll notice it’s covered with various inscriptions. The outer layer shows scientific discoveries that reflect upon how information is spread and shared among the world.
The inner layer is more symbolic of the inner workings of a physicist's mind. It looks a bit like a scientist's notepad, as it's covered with different equations and symbols that highlight the math behind the science. In a way, the inscriptions show the chaotic blend of information that makes scientific progress possible."
