Abstract
Space observations have opened the spectral regions of X-rays and γ-rays, which are produced by plasma processes. ThePlasma Universederived from observations in these regions is drastically different from the now generally accepted ‘Visual Light Universe’ based on visual light observations alone. Historically this transition can be compared only to the transition from the the geocentric to the heliocentric cosmology.The purpose of this paper is to discuss what criteria a cosmological theory must satisfy in order to be acceptable in the Plasma Universe.Keywords
