Firmament
The structure above the atmosphere of Earth, conceived as a vast solid dome
In Ancient Near Eastern cosmology, the firmament is a celestial barrier that separates the Heavenly waters above from the Earth below. In Biblical cosmology, the firmament (Hebrew: רָקִ֫יעַ rāqīaʿ) is the vast solid dome created by God during the Genesis creation narrative to separate the primal sea into upper and lower portions so that the dry land could appear.

From Wikipedia
In Ancient Near Eastern cosmology, the firmament is a celestial barrier that separates the Heavenly waters above from the Earth below. In Biblical cosmology, the firmament (Hebrew: רָקִ֫יעַ rāqīaʿ) is the vast solid dome created by God during the Genesis creation narrative to separate the primal sea into upper and lower portions so that the dry land could appear. The Quran describes a firmament above the Earth, created by God and raised; there has been some dispute whether the Quranic firmament is flat or domed. The concept was adopted into the subsequent Classical and Medieval models of heavenly spheres, but was dropped with advances in astronomy in the 16th and 17th centuries. Today the word is sometimes used as a synonym for the sky or for heaven.
