This incredible depiction of what is clearly a DNA spiral in 6 sections in the style of binary bits on a disc, representing the use of DNA as information or data. Appeared near Boomerang Stables in Crooked Soley, Berkshire in a field of wheat close to harvest and measuring approximately 200ft in diameter. Interestingly it appeared at the very end of the crop circle season in 2002, the same year as the Alien portrait holding binary disc formation.
The idea of using DNA as information storage was first theorised in 1959 and way before the appearance of this pattern and it was first put into practise first by scientists in 1988, interestingly however it was first put into practise with a binary encoding in 2007, 5 years after the appearance of this pattern.
