As a part of the international space race, the Cosmos Space Center planned to launch the HAT-1 rocket alongside the Hope probe in order to obtain asteroid samples for research. However, days before the launch, Yuri Cosmos received a call from a mysterious international spy called the phantom claiming that he would sabotage the launch. The day before the launch, Metis Cykes, an employee at the Space Center, was murdered, and a moon rock was stolen. Despite all this, Cosmos went ahead with the launch.
It turned out that the rocket had indeed been sabotaged. Although the rocket suffered an explosion and subsequent problems that dogged the rest of the flight, the crew returned safely. The incident became known as the HAT-1 Miracle in the press, but the sabotage was kept under wraps. Cykes's murder became known as the UR-1 Incident, and Simon Blackquill was convicted of the crime. Believing Blackquill to be the one behind the sabotage, Cosmos hoped to move on and put the incident in the past.

Mugshot.
Cosmos is a very self-important man who believes that his name will go down in history. Rank appears to be extremely important to him, as he appeared severely depressed after the badges and stars on his uniform were strewn everywhere from his breakdown in court, prompting him to weakly request help to pick them up. Cosmos seems to be unaware of when people are mocking his grandstanding, believing that they are either praising him or pointing out the normal traits of a "great man" such as himself. He is also prone to angry outbursts.
Despite his ego, Cosmos cares deeply about those that he is responsible for, even being willing to endanger his position in order to protect his astronauts. Cosmos also showed remorse over Simon Blackquill's conviction after learning of the HAT-2 bomb threat, realizing that they had arrested an innocent man and locked him away for seven years. Even after the HAT-2 debacle, he continued his efforts to ensure that Starbuck would go back into space. After the resolution of the case, Cosmos was demoted to Assistant Director, but still showed just as much enthusiasm in planning and preparing for the HAT-3 launch.
Name
- His Japanese family name "Oogawara" means "riverside". This may be a reference to the Japanese word for the Milky Way galaxy, which is "Amanogawa" (天の川; lit. "heavenly river"); thus the river he is beside is not a body of water, but the galaxy. It may also be a reference to Kunio Okawara, a mechanical designer in the Japanese anime industry who worked on the mecha designs in the Gundam space opera anime metaseries.
- His given name "Uchuu" comes from the Japanese word for "space" (宇宙), which has the same pronunciation, but different kanji.
- His English given name "Yuri" most likely comes from Yuri Gagarin, who was the first human to journey into outer space. Ironically, "Yuri" is based on the Greek name "Georgios", which means "earthworker".
- "Cosmos", his English surname, is a synonym for the universe. It also means "Space" in Russian, hence the term "cosmonaut".
