Description Aether (classical element)

Mythology
The word αἰθήρ (aithēr) in Homeric Greek means "pure, fresh air" or "clear sky"...the pure essence where the gods lived and which they breathed, analogous to the air breathed by mortals...

...Plato's Timaeus posits the existence of a fifth element...called quintessence, of which the cosmos and all celestial bodies are made....

Thank you for stopping by, and for the feedback, I really appreciate it! I'm glad you like it, it's very small...only an inch wide by two inches tall...
