So how would you get to this new dimension; space? You would build a launcher requiring alot of redstone or other resource to act as jet fuel, and the shuttle attached to the launcher just like in real life. You could build whatever ship you wanted; a pirate ship with sails, a NASA craft, or maybe a star trek replica. You would go to the cockpit and launch towards the sky, and then a screen would appear: Loading Space dimension. You would be "above" a distance art rendered version of your world, which would be in the shape of a cube. The space dimension would be mostly empty for you to build things on your own, but you can land on the planets rings/asteroids/alien relics. You could walk around your ship according to how you constructed it, and there would be a nav map which you could use to visit other players outer atmospheres. You could build a space station which would be capable of housing super ships, and your other precious belongings.
For those out there that think any scifi element would "destroy" the current atmosphere, you would be wrong. You could still craft all the things of old (and remember the pirate ship?) but also in addition to also being able to craft new things. Actually, I would like to see magic in this game and in fact I look forward to it since Notch already said he would include it eventually. So in this suggestion, scifi and fantasy would combine to make something beautiful that games like Star Ocean, Final Fantasy, Warhammer 40k, and others have also achieved. In pvp, players that like scifi more and players that like fantasy more could wage huge battles; one weilding magic and the old ways (swords, axes etc), the other weilding the raw power of technology and guns. Avatar anyone?
This would probably be the alternative to the aether, and a much better alternative.
