View of CD-ROM disc in front of personal computer
CD-ROM disc. View of a CD-ROM (Compact Disc Read- Only Memory) in front of a personal computer. A CD-ROM is a very powerful storage medium for data. Data is stored in digital form as a pattern of pits in an aluminium-coated plastic disc. A laser scans the disc and the non-pitted area reflects the laser beam to a photodetector. A single CD- ROM disc may store about 600 Megabytes of data, equivalent to some 300, 000 pages of text. Although CD-ROMs cannot be altered after manufacture, they are widely used in high-volume educational and technical database applications

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate details of a CD-ROM disc placed in front of a personal computer. The CD-ROM, short for Compact Disc Read-Only Memory, is an incredibly powerful storage medium for data. It stores information in digital form by creating patterns of pits on an aluminium-coated plastic disc. A laser scans the disc, and the non-pitted areas reflect the laser beam to a photodetector. With its immense storage capacity, a single CD-ROM can hold approximately 600 Megabytes of data, equivalent to about 300,000 pages of text. While these discs cannot be altered after manufacturing, they have found extensive use in high-volume educational and technical database applications. The still life composition beautifully showcases this technological marvel against the backdrop of a personal computer. The image highlights both the physicality and complexity involved in storing vast amounts of information within such a compact space. Science Photo Library has masterfully captured this moment where technology meets artistry. This photograph not only celebrates innovation but also serves as a reminder that even seemingly ordinary objects like CDs play an essential role in our daily lives as repositories for knowledge and data storage solutions.
