Recently enjoyed reading @sevensixfive ‘s excellent book, Space Forces, and now I’m seeing Cosmism references everywhere. I first learned of this Russian philosophy from @DrFunkySpoon , and I dig Scharmen’s exploration of it, as well as @margaret ‘s recent mention on her podcast: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-cool-people-who-did-cool-96003360/episode/part-two-when-women-were-computers-98843743/?cmp=web_share&embed=true
