In the Christian worldview, heaven is the place where God is located and also the place where the disembodied souls of the deceased go. However, since science has been penetrating more and more parts of the universe, it should be clear that the sky is merely a symbol.
With the "Sternenhimmel"-Globe, one understands the sight of the starry sky - the cloudless night sky on earth. If you look up at the starry sky from a dark location, you can see many stars above you. The stars there form a pattern in which each star has its fixed position. To make it easier to find one's way in the crowd of visible stars in the sky, the sky was divided many millennia ago into individual areas in which brighter stars form easily recognizable patterns. These are the constellations.
The COLUMBUS "Sternenhimmel"-Globe shows the different constellations and the Milky Way. The stars are divided into five different categories: First, second, third, fourth and fifth order stars.
The classic and elegant yet puristic sparkling mounting obtains its dimly glimmering shine through a special stainless steel finish - or you prefer a mounting made of mirror-finished massive brass. Whatever you decide: This product of great manual skill transforms your globe into an expression of a particular quality of life, which will continue to bring you joy for decades.
