P.167 - §17 Practically
all of the starry realms visible to the naked eye on Urantia belong to
the seventh section of the grand universe, the superuniverse of Orvonton.
The vast Milky Way starry system represents the central nucleus of Orvonton,
being largely beyond the borders of your local universe. This great aggregation
of suns, dark islands of space, double stars, globular clusters, star
clouds, spiral and other nebulae, together with myriads of individual
planets, forms a watchlike, elongated-circular grouping of about one seventh
of the inhabited evolutionary universes. |

P.1 - §5 Your world, Urantia, is one of many similar
inhabited planets which comprise the local universe of Nebadon. This universe,
together with similar creations, makes up the superuniverse of Orvonton,
from whose capital, Uversa, our commission hails. Orvonton is one of the
seven evolutionary superuniverses of time and space which circle the never-beginning,
never-ending creation of divine perfection--the central universe of Havona.
At the heart of this eternal and central universe is the stationary Isle
of Paradise, the geographic center of infinity and the dwelling place
of the eternal God. |
