Towards a Sociology of the Universe Space weaponry, satellite surveillance and communications, and private space travel are all means in which outer space is being humanized: incorporated into society&apos s projects. But what are the political implications of society not only being globalized, but becoming &apos cosmic&apos Our ideas about society have long affected, and been affected by, our understanding of the universe: large sections of our economy and society are now organized around humanity&apos s use of outer space.
