When Illuvatar created Ea, the universe, he made it with apparently geocentric design; the flat world of Arda was at the center, the space containing stars and planets ringed around it, and Illuvatar's heavenly realm on the outside. The sun and moon each circled around the world once a day, going over the land and then underneath the ground.
