I want to make a space mod where you travel to different planets and star systems and i want to make so you explore a space dimension. I want to make the planets orbit a star but i don't know how to do that.

You can't land on top of entities in Minecraft, also making them entities is limiting them to what you can do with the planets. My best guess Is to make them animated entities where you fly towards them and when you collide with them, you're teleported into the dimension corresponding to the planet

You can land/stand on entities if you set their bounding box to solid. You would still need a dimension per planet though. But you could make a skybox for each planet with the other planets in the sky. The only way to make a custom skybox without code is using the world renderer/skybox plugin.
