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.

Key features

  1. Asteroid belt

    An asteroid belt is added to the space dimensions for players to visit.

  2. Proxima Centauri

    Proxima Centauri is included as a stellar dimension alongside the existing Ad Astra destinations.

  3. Sun landing attempts

    The mod includes a landing attempt on a sun-type body, though rockets cannot launch from its surface.

  4. Restored torches and lanterns

    Extinguished torches and lanterns that Ad Astra removed are reintroduced by the mod.
