Astronism

Astronism is a naturalistic religion and organised philosophy that was founded by the philosopher Cometan and that emerged out of a wider Space Philosophy movement that began in the late 20th century following the Cold War space race. Astronism teaches a worldview called cosmocentrism in which all philosophical contemplation, religious beliefs, and intellectualisation are encouraged to be directed towards space and "the stars".

Astronist eschatology states that when a person dies, they experience a reunion with The Cosmos and depending upon a person's own beliefs, this could either be interpreted as spiritual and physical, or just physical. On top of this, the goal for all Astronists is to achieve this "cosmosis" or cosmic reunion before they die through a large set of practices and methods all leading to their attainment of "astrosis", or corporeal cosmosis; that is, cosmic reunion whilst one is still alive. This astrosis state can be achieved intellectually, spiritually, religiously, mentally, and physically. The political ideology branch of Astronism known as astronarianism.
