You're able to blast off to Deep Space directly from the Spawn Point!

This Map shows just a few of the locations being developed by the Deep Space crew.

Celtel Orbital Station and the Voxonid Asteroid Field have returned with easy building opportunities for all players.

Sign-outs for ship building stations at Gallium Shipyard will be available those who want to see the stars in a craft of their own design.

Awe-inspiring stellar phenomena awaits all who would explore the vastness of Deep Space.

Terraform planets from the ground up with your VoxelSniper.

The fun doesn't stop there. Discover strange and new alien life and populate the cosmos!

Overview

Deep Space is a large expanse of blockless void in the world of Facet. Experienced builders who do not mind crafting an experience from literally nothing will love working in space.

• Deep Space Texture Pack
• [CURATED] by plusnine, ELEVn, and AzulCaballero
• Spawn Point contains travel methods to both Celtel Orbital Station (via VoxelPort) and the Voxonid Asteroid Field (via AstroVox)
• New settings in deep space include Nebula IX and Etra IV
• The best work in Deep Space is best done by a team! Having an architect, a VoxelSniper terraformer and and a VoxelGadget / redstone expert can really put a project over the top!
• A travel Map of Deep Space Structures is updated on a regular basis.

Beginner Building in Deep Space

• The Voxonid Asteroid Field continues as a popular project for members. Members may build on any unsettled asteroid in this [FREE-FOR-ALL] section of space.
  • Outside of The Sandbox or your Cubicle, this is a great place to get your feet wet with the Texture Pack without making a long-term time commitment.
• Gallium Shipyard is also as popular space for builders to make space ships.

Cubicle -built Deep Space Submissions

Space stations, satellites should be built in Cubicles first. Other Deep Space-themed build ideas are always welcome, such as:

• Machinery designed for ship-building (platforms, mechanical arms and machinery) for inclusion at Gallium Shipyard.
  • Add a little extra flair with some VoxelGadget in your machinery, just make sure it has clearly marked OFF switch!
• Alien Plants
  • Include three-to-five variant sizes and shapes of the same plant for variety!
• Redstone and VoxelGadget special effects and animations
• Members may submit a proposed location and some Cubicle -built example structures for approval on planetoids and domed landscapes.

Advanced Building in Deep Space

Here are some ideas that might be easier to accomplish with a VoxelSniper license:

• AstroVox "roller coaster sections" can be submitted! Design consideration:
  • Travel coasters must be two-way.
  • Monorail-like area "tour coasters" can be one-way. Check with local architects for permission on how to incorporate your tour coaster into the area.
  • AstroVox lines run on invisible black cloth (35:15). Build your track lines in another Texture Pack and then switch to test them out!
  • Less is more: Don't overdo it. Give the rider a few surprises but remember: part of the fun of space travel is that nice smooth ride through the stars!
• You can practice your terraforming techniques with your LiteSniper by creating new asteroids in the asteroid field with your supervising instructor present.
• Large asteroids and planetoids
• Space phenomena and alien life (energy vortexes, space squid, etc.)
• Dramatic terraformed features using Deep Space terrain blocks.
