Job in the Bible speaks about an "empty space" (Job 26:7).Although the Heavens are filled with stars where ever the telescope can reach,it seems that behind the North star there is an empty space.for that reason it has been suggested that this could be the third heaven.One of the most inspiring and thrilling of recent disclosures to astronomers is that there is a great empty space in the North in the Nebulae of the constillation Orion.A heavenly cavern so gigantic that the mind of man cannot even comprehend and so brilliantly beautiful that words cannot adequately describe it.What has been found,Job wrote about;"He stretched out the north over the empty place..."(Job 26:7).All astronomers agree there is a huge opening over the constellation Orion which is perhaps more than 16 trillion,740 billion miles in diameter.This opening is 90,000 times as wide as our earth's orbital path.However,past it's size is it's beauty.Its colors are unlike any here on earth.The photographs (I'm looking for) of its opening reveal the interior of a cavern so great that our entire solar system would be lost in it.The interior is like that of light shining and glowing behind the clear walls of ivory and pearl,studded with millions of diamonds like shining stars.There must be some reason why all this grandeur is lavished on one area in the Heavens.They give the appearance of a pavement of starry sand.Astronomers although not religious,say they feel like they are in some almighty presence.
