Since the Nether is another dimension, it doesn’t technically exist within the Overworld. To get there, you must instead construct a Nether Portal out of Obsidian. Obsidian is created when water flows into lava (NOT the other way around: this creates Stone).

Why isn’t my nether portal working?

One could be that the portal is in the wrong shape. The portal has to be 3 blocks vertically INSIDE the portal. If you jump in the portal frame, you should be able to jump up one block. It also has to be 2 blocks wide horizontally.

To get Netherite you’ll need to mine Ancient Debris first, which can only be found in the Nether. When you enter the Nether you’ll need to mine until you reach Y level 8-15. Most Ancient Debris will spawn at Y level 15. Once you get at the Y level, begin mining as you would normally.

Can you reach the moon in Minecraft?

The Moon is a joke dimension that can be accessed by flying up to Y=700 in the Overworld. The Moon has a weak gravitational pull.
