There isn't really much in the way of background, I was thinking about people who decide to use cryopreservation, or the potential of sending out spacecraft for long periods of time where it may be out of communication range but the craft is meant to return, or even something as simple as a school's time capsule. The constraints were chosen in order to remove the easiest answers (file sizes, period of time, etc). Ultimately I think it's an unsolved problem that will become more important over time. My family can has photo albums from over 50 years ago but that doesn't have the kind of bandwidth we need for larger datasets (audio, video, etc). So I guess it's just a thought experiment I thought was interesting.
