microcosm 

A small, representative system having analogies to a larger system in constitution, configuration, or development

A boarding school is a microcosm in comparison to the real world. Although it may have the same characteristics, it is just a smaller version of it and not the real thing. See macrocosm and wobblotocrosm

Microcosminal Engineer 

One who studies the micro bacteria of organisms on planets within 300 to 900 million light years of Earth. NASA specialist intent on proving organic organisms exist through the dimension theorem for space vectors.

A recent MIT graduate and microcosminal engineer, Jake is on the forefront of proving the existence of spontaneal life.

Macrocosm and Microcosm (Science)

The principle that the patterns and structures of the very large (macrocosm) are reflected in the very small (microcosm), and vice versa. It's the scientific echo of "as above, so below." An atom with a nucleus and orbiting electrons structurally resembles a solar system with a star and orbiting planets. The neural networks in your brain resemble the web of galaxies in the universe. This concept suggests that the universe is a self-similar, holographic system where the laws of physics create repeating patterns at every scale, from the quantum foam to the cosmic web. Understanding the microcosm (like quantum mechanics) often gives you the keys to understanding the macrocosm (like the behavior of black holes).

Macrocosm and Microcosm (Science) "Look at this fractal broccoli. Now look at a satellite image of a forest. Now look at a diagram of your lungs. Macrocosm and Microcosm, baby. Nature's just copy-pasting the same 'efficient branching' design at every scale because it's too lazy to come up with something new."
