The angels not only worship God 24 hrs a day around his throne, but as the name implies they are messengers of God. The Bible tells us we entertain angels unaware. Jesus is on the right hand of God making intersession for mankind. The holy Spirit is sent into the world to compel the lost to turn to Christ. God is the all powerful authority taking care of all creation.

Christianity is a monotheistic religion. It believes in 1 God so there aren't "different deities in heaven" according to Christianity.
Christians believe that Jesus was the "incarnation of God." In hagiography or mythology--or whatever you want to call it--Jesus is called the "son of God" but the idea is that he and God are essentially the same entity. In Catholocism, there is the idea of the trinity: God in 3 persons. This is not interpreted as there being 3 different deities--but God having a relationship with creation in 3 different ways: as a transcendent deity, as a redeemer and teacher involved with humankind, and as a spiritual link between God and people.
Angels are a carryover from early Christianity and Judaism, with the belief that spiritual entities (not deities per se) populate the heavenly world and answer to God in managing the order of the universe.

"The LORD has Made The Heavens His Throne; from there
He rules over everything there is. Bless The LORD, you
mighty angels of His who carry out His Orders, listening for
each of His Commands. Yes, Bless The LORD, you armies
of His angels who serve Him constantly. Let everything
everywhere Bless The LORD. And how I Bless Him too!"
Psalm 103:19-22
So, God is in Heaven and Jesus Sits at His Right Hand (a position associated with power and favour), Interceeding on our behalf with God. Whe we enter Heaven with Jesus' Seal upon us (Placed by The Holy Spirit when we have accepted Jesus as LORD and Saviour of our lives), all that God Sees is The Beauty and Radiance of Jesus covering us from head to toe, He does not see our wrong doings. This is because we are asked to ask forgiveness immediately when in our humanity we do wrong, to keep 'short accounts' in other words not to let our wrong drag on!
Heaven is Eternal Relationship WITH God!
Hell is Eternal seperation FROM God!
It is possible to experience a taste of Heaven on earth, through prayer and sitting quietly at The Feet of Jesus! Many people (myself included) have done so - and we are not deluded! It brings a sense of peace that cannot be explained by this world, even in the midst of difficulties and challenge!
"The LORD is my Light and my Salvation; whom shall I fear?...
My heart shall know no fear! I am confident that God will
Save me. The one thing I want from God, the thing I seek
most of all, is the privilege of meditating in His Temple,
living in His Presence every day of my life, delighting in His
incomparable perfections and gloyr. There I will be when
troubles come. He will Hide me. He will set me on a high
rock ot of reach of all my enemies. The I will bring sacrifices
and sing His praises with much joy...
My heart has heard you say, "Come and talk with me, O
My People." And my heart responds, "LORD, I am coming." Psalm 27:1,3-6,8

How would we know?
No one here has ever been to heaven and none of them ever will be even if they are a christian, because even in the bible it says you stay dead until the lord comes back and then the dead in christ shall rise. and not long after that god will create the new earth for humans.
So no one goes to heaven.
