In Chapter 173, Christopher talks about the constellations he sees above the roof of the shed. I believe the stars and constellations represent Christopher's hopes and dreams. He has such high hopes for his future; he wants to get A's on his A-Level Maths, take A-Level Physics, and some day become an astronaut. His dreams, like the stars, shine so brightly, but seem so far away.
