The study of how human societies imagine, fund, and react to the cosmos, from ancient star-worshippers to modern Mars-colony dreamers. It examines why we project our hopes and fears onto the heavens (aliens will save us / aliens will eat us), how space discoveries reshape culture (the Earthrise photo changed everything), and why billionaires are so obsessed with space (it's the ultimate gated community). Space social sciences reveal that the cosmos is a mirror, reflecting not what's out there, but what we bring to it.
