  Cosmos 1: To Sail the Celestial Seas
In his presentation, Friedman described the Cosmos 1 project, the Planetary Society’s prototype solar sailboat, which it hopes to launch in late 2003 in cooperation with Russia’s Babakin Space Center and the Russian Academy of Sciences’ Space Research Institute.
The project is funded by Cosmos Studios, a science-based media venture run by Ann Druyan (Planetary Society co-founder Carl Sagan’s widow), the A&E Network, and Planetary Society members, and is the first space mission by a public-interest organization without government funding.
Cosmos 1 is to be launched into an 800-kilometer circular, near-polar orbit of Earth.

 [No title]
The COSMOS system allows players to create any type of character be it fantasy, Sci-Fi, or reality, and use that character in any setting.
Even though the COSMOS system is skill based as opposed to class based, this does not mean that there are no classes per say.
Although the COSMOS system supports beings from 0 level to 50th level, characters between 10th and 20th level are considered high level, with 10th level equalling name rank level, knight or mage status for those two medieval archetypes, and 20th level would indicate lord or archmage status respectively.

Still, this crowded earth is one of those perhaps innumerable places in the cosmos where both life and consciousness flourish.
Many factors united to produce and maintain the right conditions where life was generated by a concentration of mighty forces upon one relatively tiny point.
Thanks to the vivifying and organizing power of the Spark, we find throughout the cosmos an infinity of dwelling places, other worlds, kosmoi (topoi is the word always used — the "places"), either occupied or awaiting tenants.

 A Short History of the Kettering Group
Concentration on a sub-set of Cosmos satellites which disappeared from orbit after flights lasting only eight days or less - long before they would have decayed naturally - was the key to unlocking many of the secrets of the Soviet military space programme carried out under the Cosmos label.
The Russian Cosmos 5 filled the bill but, as soon as I heard it, it was obvious that its signals were of an unusual character.
When Cosmos 112 was launched on 17 March 1966, it quickly became apparent that there was something very different about it besides its departure from the standard 65° inclination to the Equator.

As the second stage of the Cosmos-3M launcher approached apogee it made a second burn and placed the satellites – officially Cosmos 2390 and 2391 – into a 1,467-1,510 km near-circular orbit.
The use of the ‘Cosmos’ name was a clear indicator that the satellites were military in nature.

 Bird wings evolved from biplane dinosaurs | COSMOS magazine
Either it was an evolutionary experiment in one group of dinosaurs that eventually failed, or avian flight went through a four-winged stage before losing one of the sets of wings.
Fossil evidence supports the latter view, according to the researchers, because the skeletons of six other dinosaurs that lived from 140 million to 125 million years ago show a gradual shift from wings on both hind and forelimbs toward wings only on the forelimbs.
