How to go to space

Move your ship to the world height limit (y=384).

Your ship will enter space if it passes this limit.

While piloting your ship, holding your clock and looking up, sneak (shift fly). Your ship will move upwards.

How to jump to hyperspace

Put 2 chetherite in each of the hoppers of the hyperdrive

Move 1000 blocks AWAY from any planets (gravity wells prevent hyperspace travel)
