It is concluded that the philosophy of Albert Camus provides insight helpful to the ethical-political development and application of (Charles Tandy's) Omniverse Theory. Such insights help expand Omniverse Theory with respect to pragmatic proposals meant to improve terrestrial society, ban extraterrestrial weapons, and proactively structure an extraterrestrial world at stable peace fit for free persons living in self-sufficient green-habitat intentional communities. Conceptually, it was found that individual rights are ethically required and that these individual rights in turn ethically require mutual obligations. Such a perpetually-evolving peaceful-and-free world society (”Meridiankind”) cuts across generations, generating an ethical imperative to develop antideath science-technology with the ability to resurrect all of the dead.
