The noosphere, a term introduced by Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and Vladimir Vernadsky, refers to the sphere of human thought, knowledge, and collective consciousness, representing the next stage of planetary evolution after the geosphere (physical Earth) and biosphere (life). While the Kardashev Scale focuses on energy mastery, the noosphere emphasizes information, cognition, and interconnected intelligence, suggesting an indirect but significant relationship.
