Interstellar
Welcome to Interstellar, a mod that allows you to traverse the universe! Well, just the Moon and Mars right now, but there are plans!
Luna
Luna, more commonly known as the Moon, can be traveled to in these sort of realm crossover biomes, the Lunized Wastes, where moon dust is dropped from the Moon and piles up on the ground.
The Portal
You make a lunar portal like a nether portal, except you use compacted moon dust instead of obsidian.
Suffocation
Watch out! Setting foot on Luna can be deadly without a lunite space suit! Lunite can be found underground in the Lunized Wastes or under Luna itself. Once you have crafted the armor, you are free to traverse the low-grav environment of Luna!
Temperature
Of course, since the Moon has no atmosphere, it has extreme temperature swings! To protect yourself from burning to a crisp or becoming a human icicle, you'll need TempKote®! Slap that stuff on your helmet and you'll have a fully conditioned space-suit! Now you're ready for anything Luna throws at you!
Mars
1.1.1 is here and Mars is ready to be explored! If you want to take on this new challenge, read well!
The Portal
Unlike Luna, Mars doesn't have any sort of crossover biome. So how do you get there? It's simpler than it seems. You'll need about 91 iron ingots. Craft all but 1 into blocks and smelt them to oxidize them. Once that's done, make the portal frame. To ignite the portal, smelt the iron ingot twice to make Iron Oxide Dust, and sprinkle that onto the portal to light it up!
Suffocation
Much like Luna, Mars has very little oxygen. However, it does have a bit, which means you have about 2.4x longer before you meet your fate in space. But, nonetheless, you still need a Lunite spacesuit.
Temperature
Mars's temperature swings aren't too different from Luna's, except colder. Get that TempKote®, and good luck!
Recommended/Required Mods
There are many mods that tie this experience together. Astrocraft is required, because it looks really cursed without it! Sinytra Connector is also required to attach these mods together. And finally, Tough as Nails is highly recommended, to tie together the climate experience.
What's Next?
This mod wouldn't be called Interstellar without plans for other planets! Here's the plans:
