Cosmos

Cosmos (Greek: Κόσμος, Hebrew: קוסמוס, Arabic: كوسموس, Russian: Космос) refers to the universe or the world as a complex, ordered entity, often used in the context of astronomy, philosophy, and cosmology. In ancient Greek, the term kosmos denoted the world as an ordered and harmonious whole, a concept that has been adopted and evolved in various cultures and languages. In modern usage, cosmos often refers to the universe as a whole, encompassing all of space and time, all forms of matter and energy, and the physical laws that govern them. The term is also used in the context of the Cosmos television series, a popular science documentary series hosted by astronomer Carl Sagan, which explores the wonders of the universe. In Russian, Kosmos is also the name of the Soviet and later Russian space program, reflecting the broader cultural significance of the term.
