Ad Astra: Star
by qeqes13141
Ad Astra: Star is a Forge world generation mod that adds an asteroid belt and Proxima Centauri to the Ad Astra space dimensions.
What it does
Ad Astra: Star extends Ad Astra with new stellar dimensions. Its notes describe an attempt to land on a sun-type body, an asteroid belt, and Proxima Centauri as a destination. Rockets cannot launch from a surface of this kind, so these dimensions are reached by other means. The mod also brings back extinguished torches and lanterns that Ad Astra removed, and more destinations and further stellar dimensions may come in later updates.
Ad Astra: Star requires Ad Astra to run. The mod is built for Forge and works on Minecraft 1.20.1 only, with the latest file 1.0.1 dated 2026-06-13. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. The code is licensed under the MIT License, but the project is not open source.
