Our Cosmic Context

Now, this was cosmic.

Suppose you're the cosmic designer.

The Politics of Cosmic Catastrophe

They're really a sort of cosmic mush.

G. Valsecchi (Cosmic Physics and Space Astrophysics Institute, Italy).

Cosmic miracles are something which can be related to SETI.

And I believe that technology is actually a cosmic force.

We can actually study line of sight velocities of cosmic objects.

And you start seeing these networks, this cosmic web of structure forming.

Think about those oldest living things on Earth, but in a cosmic proportion.

It was cosmic radiation left over from the very birth of the universe.

Values that maintain the proposition that their prayers, and their prayers alone, maintain the cosmic balance.

A cosmic us and them, and a God who is guilty of the worst kind of favoritism?

It has made important confirmation of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropy first measured by the Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE), launched in 1989, and it has begun to make a finer scale map of the CMB than is possible with the smaller antennas of COBE.

I wish that you would empower Earthlings everywhere to become active participants in the ultimate search for cosmic company.

This is why you can feel such a sense of cosmic union with somebody after you've made love to them.

It offers mystery, scientific insight and obviously splendor beyond compare, and the investigation of this system has enormous cosmic reach.

Because the Pleiades cluster is so close, it serves as an ideal cosmic laboratory to compare stellar qualities with spin rates.

It is actually a living connection to the cosmic event that we are part of, and a story that is certainly ongoing.

And those fluctuations were stretched to astronomical sizes, and those fluctuations eventually are the things we see in the cosmic microwave background.

Perhaps there is a great, cosmic plan that allows for horrible suffering so that everything will work out OK in the end.

This is a cosmic ray experiment that has been launched all the way to the upper stratosphere to an altitude of 40 km.

But even in this concertinaed cosmic perspective, our century is very, very special, the first when humans can change themselves and their home planet.

If we're blind to this simple biology, imagine what we're missing at the smallest subatomic level right now and at the grandest cosmic levels.

And if we are to be stewards of our planet Earth and its biosphere, we'd better understand the cosmic significance and do something about it.

Occasionally, throughout history, this concept of this very large cosmic perspective comes to the surface, and as a result we see transformative and profound discoveries.

(a) Prognoz development of methods of making quick forecasts of the radiation situation in orbit depending on solar activity and the intensity of cosmic radiation

Scientists believe, for example, that the interactions of cosmic ray particles with gas between the stars produce diffuse gamma ray emissions from our Milky Way galaxy.

These predictions are in excellent agreement with observations by the WMAP satellite of the cosmic microwave background, which is an imprint of the very early universe.

And what we try to do in astronomy and cosmology is to go back before Darwin's simple beginning, to set our Earth in a cosmic context.

Might it be the discovery of a distant civilization and our common cosmic origins that finally drives home the message of the bond among all humans?

Space physicists using the Solar, Anomalous, and Magnetospheric Particle Explorer (SAMPEX), launched in June 1992, discovered a radiation belt of trapped anomalous cosmic rays in the magnetosphere.

The motion of the local group of galaxies derived with respect to these galaxy clusters was significantly different from the one derived with respect to the cosmic microwave background.

And in the time since Galileo pointed that rudimentary telescope at the celestial bodies, the known universe has come to us through light, across vast eras in cosmic history.

Because that cosmic basic idea that it is us all alone, each of us, and everyone else is different, then that puts us in an impossible situation, doesn't it?

This is the noise that Penzias and Wilson heard the oldest sound that you're ever going to hear, the cosmic microwave background radiation left over from the Big Bang.

For that entire time, the world only exists as an abstraction, as he is taught the values of society, including this notion that their prayers alone maintain the cosmic balance.

It was big enough to be transparent to light, and that's what we see in the cosmic microwave background that George Smoot described as looking at the face of God.

I had one business plan where I was trying to learn more about Witten's cosmic dimension strings to try to understand what the phenomenon was going on in this proposed nanomaterial.

And if you work with, in the right atmosphere, with humor, you have that's the password to the cosmic bank of knowledge, where you can find any solution of any problem.

ESA, the Spaceguard Foundation and the Cosmic Physics and Space Astrophysics Institute of Italy signed an agreement on the location and operation of the Spaceguard Central Node at ESRIN, Frascati, Italy.

Another of CARA apos s experiments is on the Cosmic Background Radiation Anisotropy at the end of the fiscal year, it consisted of a suite of two telescopes designated PYTHON and VIPER.

We are a small part of the story of cosmic evolution, and we are going to be responsible for our continued participation in that story, and perhaps SETI will help as well.
