The Cosmic Cybernetics Research Institute (CCRI) conducts qualitative and quantitative research studies in cosmic cybernetics.

Cosmic cybernetics theory has been articulated in an elaborate and detailed way by David Cochrane.CCRI uses the theoretical framework and research findings of Cochrane as a basis for the research that is conducted.

Cosmic cybernetic theory is influenced by the work of John Addey in harmonic astrology and Reinhold Ebertin in cosmobiology, the pioneering work of Theodor Landscheidt, and is built upon a long lineage of thinkers who pondered a music of the spheres, including Pythagoras and Kepler.

The term cosmic cybernetics was introduced by Theodor Landscheidt. The term is used in the context of CCRI to refer to the development and articulation of a model for astrological analysis developed by Cochrane.

Members of CCRI have advanced training and knowledge in one or more of the following areas: Cosmic Cybernetics, Statistics, Research Methodology, or Physics.

The research conducted by CCRI is rigorous and attempts to conform to the high standards of academia. Research is conducted and reported using academic guidelines, including the following:

a) When studies are conducted in an exploratory manner or have potential serious limitations, these limitations are noted.

b) Negative findings are shared equally with positive findings.

c) Research is conducted in the spirit of discovering new knowledge rather than in defending a priori assumptions and beliefs that are based on personal opinion. Theory is developed in the context of evidence-based analysis.

CCRI is primarily devoted to research rather than to philosophical speculation. Cosmic cybernetics serves as a theoretical framework for CCRI because

(a) It is elegant.

(b) Results from prior research based on cosmic cybernetics have provided useful information.

(c) Results from prior research suggest that more definitive findings are possible in future studies. The theoretical framework employed by researchers can and should evolve and develop in response to research findings.

CCRI shares research results via papers submitted to journals and posting of papers on the Internet.
