Quantum 3-sphere is constructed by glueing noncommutative solid tori
(quantum disc times circle) along their classical boundaries. The resulting
quantum 3-sphere is different from both SUq(2) and the Matsumoto 3-spheres.
The irreducible *-representations of its algebra are classified. It is
proven that the algebra is a relatively projective U(1)-Galois extension,
and the associated projective modules (Hopf line bundles) are discussed.
This Hopf-Galois extension is by construction locally trivial.
