A model theory is constructed that exhibits quantization on a cosmic scale. A holistic rationale for the theory is discussed. The theory incorporates a fundamental length, of cosmic size, and preserves the weak, geometrical equivalence principle. The momentum operator is an integral, nonlocal, naturally contravariant operator, in contrast to the usual quantum case. In the limit of high quantum numbers the theory reduces to classical physics, giving rise to a world which is quantized both on the microscopic and cosmic scale, each of which passes over to the usual macroscopic, continuous, classical, world in the high n limit. The theory is applied to two experimental situations, absorption lines in high- z quasars and elliptical rings around normal galaxies, with suggestive but not definitive results.
