Apollo
A modern space mod for Minecraft. Currently, development is paused.
About this Mod
Me and many other people loved space mods like Galacticraft, but they're on old versions of Minecraft. Apollo is a space mod the utilizes newer aspects of Minecraft like custom worlds through datapacks. Apollo is still actively developing and improving. I will take feedback, but remember that early on there will be many placeholder features and textures.
Features
- The Moon
- Meteorites

- Low gravity
- Custom data-driven skybox
Planned Features

- More planets
- An API to allow for expansion datapacks and mods to be created
Bleeding Edge
If you would like a bleeding edge version of Apollo, they can be found on GitHub. They're automatically created anytime a change is pushed. Click on the version you would like and download the artifacts. This will be a zip file containing the mod. Bleeding edge may be unstable so use a backup of your world or create a new world.

Server lagging with Apollo – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 6 GB (per 5 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Apollo consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge.
