And for untold ages, the enormous aggregation of suns, black holes, planets and moons will pursue this almost direct northerly course.
Our world, Urantia belongs to a system which is well out towards the borderland of our local universe; and our local universe is at present traversing the periphery of Orvonton, the name of an enormous galactic system of which our world is a tiny part. Beyond us there are still others, but we are far removed in space from the physical systems which swing around the great circle in comparative proximity to the Great Source and Center.

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.
