In Middle Earth, after the Sundering, the stars became, (were revealed to be) great furnaces, globes of fire, (all but one: the Silmaril bourne by Earendil shone upon Arda and Aman, unchanged), the Sun their incandescent sibling; the heavens were no ceiling, no over-arching vault, but vasty deeps, endless to eye or lens or instrument of art. One could fall up forever, did not the ground hold fast.
Yet in Aman a different physics held: the plane encircled, the Sea that touched all shores, and over all the crystal sphere: the Dome of Varda’s stars, high and hard and bright.
