The Celestial Globe (or sphere) is an imaginary sphere around our planet, earth. All objects in the sky and space, such as satellites, can be thought inside this invisible sphere.

Celestial Season was created in 1991.
These are imaginary locations in the sky. The "celestial sphere" is a blanket term for everything beyond the Earth. The celestial equator is the plane of the Earth's equator extended out into space. The "celestial poles" are extensions of the north pole and south pole into space. It's sometimes convenient to describe objects out in space with reference to terrestrial coordinates.
Celestial Equator
That is also called the axis; the "end-points" of this axis are called the celestial poles.

In the past I have read a book called 'The Celestial Globe'.
Also known as astrolabes and armillaries.
Yes, "globe" is a noun. It refers to a spherical representation of the Earth or another celestial body, or a spherical object.
Celestial globes were used to represent the stars and constellations of the night sky and record their positions with respect to each other and a co-ordinate system. They were also used as analogue computers to resolve problems involving the stars. In the most common form of celestial globe, a number of stars were marked on a sphere, and the constellation figures delineated. The sphere was mounted by its poles (corresponding to the celestial poles) on a metal circle, or meridian. The ecliptic and equator were marked and divided (into degrees) on the globe, to measure celestial longitude and right ascension. Declination was measured using divisions marked on the meridian. The globe was placed in a stand, which included a broad horizontal band, known as the horizon. The elevation of the pole of the globe above the horizon could be varied to adjust for the user's latitude. Once so adjusted, the rotation of the globe was analogous to the (apparent) diurnal rotation of the stars, for that latitude. Since the ecliptic and equator are marked, the globe could be used to work out the times of rising and setting of the stars, or the time of their culmination (the time when an object reaches its highest point in the sky).

The word "globe" can function as a noun. It typically refers to a spherical representation of Earth or any celestial body in general.
I don't know for sure, but it looks identical to a Celestial Globe, which was an ancient navigation tool used by sailors. Also known as an armillary sphere (variations are known as spherical astrolabe, armilla, or armil), this was a model of the celestial sphere that present the stars in relation to the earth. Link illustrates what the Celestial Globe looked like. It did have a globe mounted in the center of several rings. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armillary_sphere
Yes. It is called The Jewel of the Kalderash and was released on October 15, 2011.
Before proper maps, gps and similar, it was used to find the way around the globe.
The Globe is an open air theatre in central London. Should you have meant 'has the roof been repaired using a patching method' then the answer would be no as there is no roof to patch. Furthermore, had you meant 'does the globe theatre have a THatched roof' then the answer would still be a definite no for similar reasons.
