The Celestial Mirror

“…a series of hollow and transparent globes, one above the other…”

— C.S. Lewis, The Discarded Image

Ascend from the motionless Earth through the seven planetary spheres to the Stellatum and the Primum Mobile — up to the one boundary no geometry can cross. Then toggle the view, and climb the same tower as a transformer: token to layer to fixed constellation, with the very same line drawn at the top.
