The idea that the heavens and the earth were made up of different elements and operated under different laws was a central tenet of Aristotle's philosophy. He believed that the sublunar world, consisting of the four basic elements (earth, water, air, and fire), was subject to change and imperfection, while the heavens were made up of a fifth element, the unchanging and perfect ether, and existed in a state of eternal perfection. This idea of a fundamental divide between the earthly and the celestial realms was a major influence on medieval and Renaissance thought.
