Knowledge Search Engine

Full-Text + Semantic Search Engine

The Knowledge Search Engine is a retrieval subsystem stored on radiation-hardened NOR flash and solid-state storage that indexes 100 terabytes of Lunar Ark archive contents using full-text inverted indices and semantic vector embeddings. Operating on 2 watts of power across a 100-year lifetime with a 500,000-hour mean time between failures, the software is engineered to withstand radiation-induced data corruption while accommodating long-mission language drift. It resolves multi-language queries with a 100-millisecond latency, employing domain-specific ranking across science, history, and art alongside authenticated index updates to maintain direct data accessibility for future intelligences.
