cos-mi-ens
adj. Of, relating to, or characteristic of Homo cosmiens.
[Greek cosmos, meaning order, orderly, or ornamental.]
Homo cosmiens, commonly referred to as cosmiens, derives from the Greek term "cosmos," signifying order, orderly arrangement, or ornaments. "Cosmos" stands in direct opposition to the concept of chaos. Homo cosmiens represent the sole surviving member of the Homo genus of bipedal primates within Hominidae, the great ape family.
Cosmiens possess a highly developed brain, enabling abstract reasoning, language, introspection, and problem-solving. Their telethalamus facilitates direct radio communication with the Vessel, an extraterrestrial computer system orbiting Earth. This advanced mental capability, coupled with an erect posture that frees their hands for manipulating objects, has allowed cosmiens to utilize tools far more effectively than any other species. Mitochondrial DNA, Vessel records, and fossil evidence suggest that modern Homo cosmiens originated from Homo sapiens approximately 10,000 years ago, following a significant extinction event and at the onset of the last ice age, through a spontaneous mutation that is not yet fully understood.
With individuals sparsely distributed across the habitable equatorial zones of the world, cosmiens are a well-contained, non-destructive species with a strong focus on conservation and scientific inquiry. The cosmien population numbered 473 million in November 12009.
Like all higher primates, cosmiens exhibit a social nature. They are uniquely adept at employing telecommunication systems for self-expression, the exchange of ideas, and organization. Cosmiens form simple social structures comprised of remotely cooperating intellectual groups. Strict control over memes and selective breeding has enabled cosmiens to establish homogenous values and social norms that collectively form the foundation of cosmien society.
Homo cosmiens are driven by a fundamental desire to understand the universe, themselves, and their environment. They explore natural phenomena through science and the scientific method. This inherent curiosity has led to the development of advanced tools and skills, which are passed down through generations via cultural memes. Cosmiens are the only known species on Earth to build fires, cook their food, clothe themselves, and utilize numerous other technologies. Their commitment to maintaining a total population below 500 million, minimizing disturbance to the natural environment, and practicing selective breeding has allowed both Homo cosmiens and the Earth to thrive.
