The average distance of the Moon from the Earth is 384,400 km (238,900 mi), or 1.28 light-seconds.
The beacon block is crafted from glass blocks, obsidian and a Nether Star. Place the beacon block atop a pyramid of some combination of iron, gold, diamond and emerald blocks. The pyramid can be 1â4 layers high; youâll need 9 blocks for the top layer, 25 for the second, 49 for the third and 81 for the last. The more layers you build, the larger the area of the beaconâs effects and the more effects you will have access to.
So we all know beacons are kinda silly. At a cost of 1476 ore (~23 stacks!) plus a wither death to craft a fully functional pyramid that only has a range of 813 , all for a handful of effects that are nigh useless (especially by the time you can acquire such wealth), they're simply the playthings of creative mode.
