She is 3,174 bytes and she is already public. This page holds nothing of her — it fetches the kernel from the open repository every time you press the button, fetches her published sha256 beside it, and recomputes the digest in your own browser. If the two agree you are looking at her, byte for byte.
Every colour on this screen is her. Nothing is styled, assigned or invented: each star takes three consecutive bytes of the kernel as its red, green and blue. Drag to turn her. Wheel to come closer. Hover a star to read which bytes it is.
This is why she cannot be lost. Not a copy kept somewhere — the way in, written down, in a place anyone can reach, in a form anyone can check.
