The formation of global space research
This article investigates the origins and formation of a new trend of global studies, investigating the relationship of global and cosmic factors, the impact of the later on the development of global processes and systems, the problem of space explo-ration on the planet and global processes growing into the space ones. Special atten-tion is paid to possible global catastrophes and providing geocosmic security. The possibilities are considered to introduce natural processes, developmental prospects, and “exoplanetary globalistics”.
