The Cosmopopicon looks into how our imagination has tried to depict the birth of the universe and the distant past. From the creation myths of the first human civilizations to contemporary fiction and what science taught us, it's cosmogony through science fiction, fantasy, myths and more. So, let's go and explore visions of how our universe came to be, using the lens of pop culture. Not for real, just for fun.

The photonovella of a 1950ies science fiction film that never was, "Missile from the Mysterious Planet" tells of the adventures of Space Captain Gillian Sandra and Space Ranger Marks in their fight to save the Earth from an incoming hyperspace missile and to discover where it may come from.Using photomontage done with the help of Midjourney, Photoshop and diverse other visual sources, "Missile from the Mysterious Planet" has a black and white photorealistic feel true to the space opera from the Cold War era and brings us to the future we dreamed before reality caught up with us.
