Just a curious comment on the geocentric version of the earth based on Ptolemy's views. In the renaisance, the planets were kept in orbit because of crystal spheres. These are not the spheres in spelljammer, but a layer of concentric spheres which kept the planets in their orbit. Now, based on this view, I think it would be quite difficult to spelljam here because off all the spheres in the way. Another problem is that Earth was corrupted by sin due to the fall, but the heavens were perfect. It wasn't until Gallileo looked at the moon and found mountains there that their view was challanged. The heaven's were God's domain and thus humankind was not allowed there.y
