To access the Astral dimension you need to build the Astral Portal. The portal is built like the nether portal, but instead of obsidian you need at least 10 Glowing Obsidian and can be activated with a Steel and Dust.

NOTE: From version 1.5 you will need to install Geckolib to run the mod.

The dimension contains 9 new biomes:

New biome composed of Lunar Soil and Moonstone
Generates Moonfoam, Large & Small Solar Shrub patches, Void Eggs, Small & Large Lunar Spikes and Lunar Base Ruins

Jelly Glass:

Jelly Glass is a special type of glass, having an unique texture and can be obtained when broken without silk touch. To craft one, first you have to find a Ghost Jellyfish. These mobs spawn in Sludgy Wastelands, Dead Coral Reefs and Lunar Spikes.

Every Void Egg contains a Void Portal on top of it.

Place a Void Pillar above the portal, then place an Astral Altar on top of the Pillar.
