This study adopts a comparative-analytical approach and employs qualitative research methodology (text-based content analysis) to perform a Habermasian reading of Fereydoon Moshiri's poems, focusing on the critique of the "conquest of the moon." The primary objective is to uncover the theoretical overlap between Jürgen Habermas's concept of the "colonization of the lifeworld" – particularly the notions of commodification, instrumental rationality, and the destruction of meaning – and Moshiri's poetic imagery in his critique of technological modernity. Data were extracted from poems relevant to the conquest of the moon and analyzed within the framework of Habermas's key concepts (lifeworld, systems, symbolic impoverishment). The findings indicate that Moshiri: 1) Views "space conquest" as a recent instance of nature's commodification, reducing the sacred lifeworld (the moon as a source of meaning) to an appropriable commodity. 2) Through metaphors such as "murder of the moon," "wave of smoke and blood," and "death of inspiration," he prefigures the consequences of the dominance of instrumental rationality (environmental destruction, crisis of trust, decline of imagination). 3) His critique of "one-dimensional progress" aligns with Habermas's critique of technocratic ideology. This research demonstrates that Moshiri's poetry not only reflects Western critical thought but also, through its "ontological metaphors," objectifies new dimensions of the theory of the colonization of the lifeworld.
