According the the Christian point of view, the first heaven is called the Intermediate Heaven. It is only a temporary place for us to wait until this old, fallen earth is destoryed and a new Earth comes to be.

Additional Answer:

The Bible mentions 3 heavens: the first is the sky where birds fly and clouds are formed; the second is the Universe or Space where planets, suns and stars are; and the third is the highest Heaven where the Throne of God is.

The first two heavens will eventually be 'cleansed' in a great fire as Peter describes and a new Earth will be created for the New Heaven with God's Throne coming to live with mankind - now spiritual sons and daughters in the God Family (Revelation 21).

2 Corinthians 12:2New International Version (NIV)

2 I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know-God knows.

In Islamic belief, the first heaven is the closest to the Earth. It is described as the sky or atmosphere that surrounds the planet and is where birds fly and clouds form. This is the first of seven levels of heaven in Islamic cosmology.
