Plasmanity was founded to provide research community support services and startup best practices consulting for open science initiatives in the plasma cosmology segment. Additionally, we investigate and document anomalous plasma-native behaviors we see as evidence of sentient plasma based life (PBL) in a universe NASA tells us is comprised 99.9% of plasma.

The 21st century crisis in cosmology is deepening. Observational tools like the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have citizen science research networks taking a second look at the gravity-first standard model of cosmology. Data-driven open cosmology communities increasingly see the big bang, dark matter, and dark energy going the way of the dinosaurs. We do too.

21st century space agencies know that 99.9% of all matter in the universe is in the 4th state---plasma. But this fact remains the most ignored, least explored metric in the scientific community. Plasmanity was founded to close this research gap in plasma cosmology and plasma-native phenomena by supporting new open research communities and the startups they incubate.

More than 400 years ago, renaissance man Sir Francis Bacon, a forefather of the scientific method, called for total renewal of the means and mechanisms by which humanity comes to know the reality in which it lives. Bacon called his new beginning an "instauration", advocating for inductive reasoning based on observable facts and empirical evidence. Fast forward to now, and Bacon's advice is more relevant than ever.

In his call for a new beginning and a new foundation for scientific progress, Francis Bacon also told us it's hard to find truth by the "engrafting of new matters upon old". But it's been more than 100 years since Einstein's gravity-first general relativity was introduced to humanity, and almost 100 years of quantum mechanics research. Despite this century of investigation, institutional BigScience continues to fail in attempts to "unify" quantum mechanics and general relativity. But rather than honestly admit the need for renewal...for instauration, BigScience floats imaginary "dark matter", "dark energy", and other forms of pseudoscience.

This never-ending search for unification---this "engrafting" of new and old that Bacon warned about---multiplied by billions upon billions of research dollars, underscores the current crisis in cosmology. This crisis is now a public conversation, driven by observational evidence provided by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) challenging the big bang, and the standard model of cosmology.

If all humanity needed was a better scientific theory to account for what we actually see in the universe, we could take our time and fight it out for another hundred years. But humanity now faces solar flares of increasing intensity driven by coronal mass ejections from our sun. We're also in a heightened period of volcanic activity, side by side with planetary warming. And as the mass media continues to remind us, an incoming meteor can end civilization as we know it... any day now. Given these threats, against the background of the crisis in cosmology, we need a paradigm shift. We need an instauration.

While BigScience stayed stuck, self-organized open source research communities emerged over the past 15 to 20 years to confront the crisis in cosmology. As a reference example, the Thunderbolts Project challenged BigScience by building on the work of plasma cosmology pioneers, documenting an "electric universe" model. And as JWST began returning observational data confirming a vast filament-interconnected plasma-native cosmos, Thunderbolts leadership were first movers in illustrating how this data validated their hypotheses, including confirmation of the role of electricity in powering stars and comets. Humanity needs more independent research networks like the one created by the Thunderbolts Project. Which brings us to Plasmanity's call for renewal.

Instauration 2.0---a research renewal focused on the centrality of plasma-native processes to all life in the universe---will follow the path of open source disruption seen in the software industry and tech ecosystems. This renewal will be characterized by the following:

• Open Cosmology Communities Will Lead: Open research networks comprised of citizen scientists---not government and academia---will deliver the next wave of plasma cosmology insight. Leveraging crowdfunding or DeSci (decentralized science on the blockchain) to build support---and evolving over time into the kind of open source foundations seen in the software industry---these communities will disrupt the pay-to-play science publishing and peer review bureaucracies, and collaboratively document the plasma-native "galactic ciruit" for citizen science consumption and follow-on research.
• Convergent Data Frameworks Will Drive Breakthrough Insight: The lack of progress in plasma-native cosmology research is largely driven by the institutional lock-in of gravity-first general relativity. But it's also related to a culture of siloed data common in academic expertism. Given this, true cosmology research renewal requires a pivot to what Plasmanity calls data relationship excavation within inter-disciplinary data sets. For example, our Exogeny360 advisory service incorporates multiple streams of public source content, from observational evidence to physical evidence, and is purpose-built to deliver "preponderance of the evidence" findings consistent with civil law.
• Exogenous Intelligence Detection Will Be Democratized: Exogeny detection, up to and including the discovery of exogenous non-human intelligence, e.g. plasma based life (PBL), will emerge as a form of mainstream research, driven by observational data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and other high tech tools. Plasmanity's advisory offering, Exogeny360, is a first mover within the emerging category of exogenous intelligence detection services. .

Open cosmology research communities and their citizen science contributors will power the next wave of plasma universe insight. Evolving over time into the kind of open source foundations seen in the software industry---these communities will disrupt the pay-to-play publishing and peer review bureaucracies. Both existing and new communities---analyzing observational data from breakthrough tools like JWST---will increasingly recognize that what we see in the data is not a "cosmic web" driven by "natural laws". It is an ecosystem of plasma based life (PBL) defined by functional and technical specifications, and intelligently designed and managed. Plasmanity's Exogeny360 advisory service is built to accelerate this journey of discovery. Our convergent data framework enables us to identify data relationships that provide strong probable cause for investigating and documenting the role of external factors---including exogenous intelligent life---in the buildout and operations of the universe.

Citizen scientists researching the exogenous intelligent design (ID) of biological life are openly challenging Darwin's theory of evolution. Their research has documented both the complexity and associated "code" within the body plans of biological life, and the cell itself. ID researchers regularly frame their work as the search for the exogenous "coder" responsible for genetic code. Plasmanity supports ongoing intelligent design investigation focused on biological life, but holds the view that since biological life constitutes a fraction of 1% of all matter in the universe---while 99%+ is comprised of plasma---humanity needs a holistic theory of ID. Plasmanity's advisory service, Exogeny360 is purpose built to provide this holistic theory, expanding 'Wave 1' intelligent design research beyond biological life into 'Wave 2' ID research documenting the intelligent design of the cosmos itself.

Humanity's commercial plasma sciences ambition has never been stronger, as it invests billions in the development of game-changing fusion energy while bootstrapping a private space economy. But it's hard to implement a 21st century technology vision with a 100 year old cosmology model. Fusion energy startups can benefit from a "non-gravity-first" view of how the plasma-native cosmos actually functions, including hypotheses regarding plasma based life (PBL). And space economy startups seeking to make humanity a "multiplanetary species" must come up to speed regarding the latest data describing anomalous plasma behaviors as a form of PBL. Exogeny360 briefings can help, providing a must-have reset to current operating assumptions regarding humanity's place in the universe, and its relationship to PBL.

The Plasmanity evidence model is based on the discovery of data relationships within public source content of various types that confirm the presence of exogenous non-human intelligence. Our approach to data is counter-AI, and does not involve the use of large language models (LLM) that generate hallucinations. An Exogeny360 briefing is free of religious superstition of all types. However we do incorporate confirming evidence from documents traditionally described as "scripture", including suppressed apocrypha that is seen as "heresy" by organized religious institutions.

Plasmanity defines plasma-native IP as insight emerging from leading plasma research pioneers (Alfven, Birkeland, Marklund) and those building upon their work, from Peratt to Thornhill. Plasma-native IP inevitably leads to the rejection of the gravity-first standard model of cosmology, and a research revolution in which citizen scientists become the vanguard in documenting how a cosmos comprised of 99.9% plasma actually works. Plasma-native IP exposes the inherent intelligence in the cosmos, and is the foundation upon which any sober investigation into the existence of plasma-based life can occur.

NASA space shuttle flight crews have witnessed anomalous plasma objects engaged in what can only be described as intentional behaviors. The objects assume distinct shapes, accelerate and slow down, change directions, cluster in groups, and engage in contact interactions with each other. Despite these manifestations of self-directed activity, researchers continue to engage in neo-disneyism and anthropomorphic projection, describing the plasma objects as "pre-life" or a primitive "multicellular organism". Plasmanity disagrees with this characterization and provides our alternative hypothesis---that what we see as a cosmic "web"---is an ecosystem of plasma based life (PBL).

Given the inherent asymmetry of a cosmos that is composed of 99.9% plasma; given the filament-connected plasma-native network connecting everything; given the intelligent order we see in circumstellar disc processes producing a solar system template, it would be a mistake for citizen researchers to see the anomalous plasma objects observed by NASA as "pre-life" or a non-sentient "multicellular organism". The PBL QuickLook section below provides Plasmanity's overview of our research into plasma based life, which we see as emerging from the quantum-native nature of the early universe.
