==The Overworld==
 
[[File:Overworld.png|thumb|Overworld landscape]]
 
''Main article: [[Overworld]]''
 
 
 
This one you know all about already. This is the old and good earthly-like dimension where the game always starts.
 
 
 
Here is where you will spend your first period of time in the game gathering resources to built your [[Tier 1 Rocket|first rocket]], your [[Breathing Equipment|life support equipment]] and other essential items to start your travels in space. Don't forget to check the [[Pre-flight Checklist]].
 
 
 
By the way, did you know that you can make your own [[Overworld Space Station|Space Station]] to orbit it?
 
 
 
<br />
 
 
 
==Moon==
 
[[File:Moon.png|thumb|Moon landscape]]
 
''Main article: [[Moon]]''
 
 
 
The Moon is made of [[Moon Rock]] with traces of [[Cheese Ore|cheese]].  Its surface is covered in craters from aeons of impacts by [[Fallen Meteor|meteors]].
 
 
 
It is reachable with a [[Tier 1 Rocket]].
 
 
 
Some things to do on the Moon:
 
* land in a good spot in your [[Space Lander|Lunar Lander]]
 
* plant a [[Flag]]
 
* admire the Overworld in the night sky
 
* practise bounding in low gravity
 
* plant trees and get an [[Oxygen]] system running
 
* taunt some [[Evolved Spider|Evolved Spiders]] (be warned, they're faster than regular spiders)
 
* make a Moon base
 
* find an [[Moon Village|Alien Village]]
 
* mine some [[Raw Meteoric Iron|Meteoric Iron]]
 
* kill the [[Evolved Skeleton Boss|Moon Boss]]
 
* open the [[Tier 1 Treasure Chest]]
 
* make a [[Moon Buggy]]
 
{{Listend}}
 
 
 
[[Meteoric Iron Ingot|Meteoric Iron]] is used to make several things including the [[Arc Lamp]], the brightest light source in Minecraft!
 
 
 
'''Pro Tip:''' To travel between a Moon base and an Overworld base, make a rocket pad at each base and set up a [[Launch Controller]] on each pad.  Now you can launch and land in the same rocket - it's faster than using a Lander each time.  You will have to think about [[Fuel Loader|refuelling arrangements]] of course.
 
 
 
==Mars==
 
[[File:Mars.png|thumb|Mars landscape]]
 
''Main article: [[Mars]]''
 
 
 
Mars is made of various kinds of [[Mars Stone|red rock]].  The atmosphere is a dusty orange color, and the sun is a little dimmer than on the Overworld.  It gets very cold at night, so make sure to wear [[Thermal Padding]].
 
 
 
Mars is reachable with a [[Tier 2 Rocket]].
 
 
 
If you spend some time on the surface, you will likely come across some [[Slimeling Egg|Slimeling Eggs]].  Break them to hatch a friendly little critter which makes an excellent pet. You can grow it into a strong fighter; fit it with a [[Slimeling Inventory Bag|bag]] and it will carry stuff for you; and adult slimelings can breed to make babies of new colors.
 
 
 
But the real wealth of Mars is underground.  Here you will find:
 
* a [[Mars Iron Ore|variety]] [[Mars Copper Ore|of]] [[Mars Tin Ore|ores]]
 
* a new material, [[Desh Ore|Desh]] which is used to craft some of the more powerful items in Galacticraft
 
* underground caverns with [[Bacterial Sludge]], [[Slimeling|Slimelings]] and [[Cavernous Vine|Cavernous Vines]]
 
* the [[Mars Dungeon]] with the fearsome [[Evolved Creeper Boss]]
 
* [[Tier 2 Treasure Chest]] items include the [[Tier 3 Rocket Schematic]], the [[Cargo Rocket Schematic]] and (as of version 3.0.12) the [[Astro Miner Schematic]]
 
{{Listend}}
 
[[Desh Armor|Armor]] made from [[Desh Ingot|Desh]] has a unique knockback reduction ability - very useful in a fight!
 
 
 
'''Pro Tip:''' Mars is a great place to set up an automatic fuel production factory, using the [[Methane Synthesizer]] and [[Gas Liquefier]].
 
 
 
==Asteroids==
 
[[File:Asteroids.png|thumb|Asteroids view]]
 
''Main article: [[Asteroids]]''
 
 
 
The Asteroids is a very different kind of dimension, filled with large and small asteroids.  There is microgravity so you will need to figure out a safe way to move between them, or risk an endless fall!
 
 
 
You will need a [[Tier 3 Rocket]] to reach the Asteroids.  It's a little further from the sun so there's not so much light as you are maybe used to: it's a good idea to bring a [[Arc Lamp|powerful light source]] with you.  It's also cold in deep space: [[Thermal Padding]] is essential.
 
 
 
If you spend some time in the Asteroids dimension, you will discover that it's a miner's paradise.  Around one third of the asteroids have a [[Asteroids#Geological Features|solid core]] of mineable minerals.  This includes a new ore, [[Ilmenite Ore|Ilmenite]] - you can make [[Titanium Ingot|Titanium]] from it.
 
 
 
The [[Astro Miner]] can automate your asteroid mining: it automatically finds nearby asteroids, flies to them, mines out their cores, and brings back what it finds to its [[Astro Miner Base|base]].
 
 
 
[[Compressed Titanium|Titanium]] is used to make the [[Titanium Sword]], the most powerful weapon in Galacticraft, and also the [[Short Range Telepad]], [[Beam Receiver|Beam Receivers]] and [[Beam Reflector|Beam Reflectors]], and [[Walkway|Walkways]].
 
 
 
'''Pro Tip:''' The [[Grapple]] can help you move around this dimension. Once you get some [[Titanium Ingot|Titanium]] you can make [[Short Range Telepad|Short Range Telepads]] to travel between two Asteroid bases.
 
 
 
== Venus ==
 
[[File:Venus landscape.png|thumb|Venus landscape]]
 
''Main article: [[Venus]]''
 
 
 
Venus is the 4th and latest dimension to be added in Galacticraft 4. It is a Nether-like place with steep mountains, vapor, lava and lots of dangers.
 
 
 
The sky is very cloudy with constant lightning storm. There's no rain or snowfall. The atmosphere is very poisonous and corrosive. The days are very long: about 10 hours (30 Overworld days). To generate energy, use [[Geothermal Generator]]s.
 
 
 
The landscape offers a variety of terrain formations and biomes with tall and sharp mountains, plains and valleys with lava pools. Watch out for Sulphuric Acid pockets.
 
 
 
Featuring:
 
* Crashed Probes.
 
* Spider Queen, as boss, and 'Juicers', as her minions.
 
* Volcanic Pickaxe and Shield Controller as rewards for beating the boss.
 
* Galena ore (yeld lead).
 
 
 
==Other planets==
 
[[File:Planet Selection Screen.png|thumb|The Planet Selection Screen with all planets.]]
 
The [[Planet Selection Screen|Celestial Catalog]] also includes:
 
* Mercury
 
* Jupiter
 
* Saturn
 
* Uranus
 
* Neptune
 
{{Listend}}
 
 
 
But '''these cannot yet be reached in Galacticraft''' and will show up red in the [[Planet Selection Screen|planet selection screen]].  They are included in the game because we have future plans for them.  For now, you will just have to enjoy the way they look, and wonder ...
 
 
 
Please do not ask the developers "when will these new planets be in the game?"  Be patient, they will come some day!
 
 
 
Meanwhile you can maybe find a Galacticraft Add-On which adds new planets, or come give us your ideas for them in the [http://forum.micdoodle8.com/index.php?forums/suggestions.7/ suggestions area] of the forum.
