Where do the condemned spend eternity?

Since the popular notion of the dead living on clouds and playing harps is obviously not biblical and we were created to live on earth and not in heaven and the dead in Christ probably will be living on earth in their regenerated, resurrection bodies, where does this leave the unbeliever, the person who is to spend an eternity in "hell?"

Are they to spend it with the fallen angels since the bible states that hell was created for the fallen angels and if this is so it probably is not on earth but in some far off remote place but someplace mystical.

This is just something that came to mind today while studying and learning that we are going to probably spend eternity here on earth with "new" bodies that do not have sin, so it made me think of where the reprobate will spend eternity and if it would in fact be earth or somewhere else.

The question for us today is, will we be like the majority of Israel and continue to look in fear at the giants in the land and urge our fellow Christians to be "realistic," or will we be like Joshua and Caleb and faithfully follow our king, trusting to fulfill every one of his promises completely?
