These great hollow globes of artificial super-metals, and artificial transparent adamant, ranged in size from the earliest and smallest structures, which were no bigger than a very small asteroid, to spheres considerably larger than the Earth. (Olaf Stapledon, STAR MAKER)

Not Quite the Hayden Planetarium
I remember as a kid going to the Hayden Planetarium where they had painted the skyline from Central Park around the edge of the dome and watching a star show (years later I returned to listen to Pink Floyd and watch lasers). Today's Astronomy Picture of the Day shows today's sky over New York City: a few scattered star trails and a lucky ISS pass, but the lights drown out all else!
