Modular Backgrounds - Cosmos is a pack of high detail nebula & galaxy prefabs that can be added to the background of your 3D scenes.
You can place the prefabs anywhere in the sky, adjust their size, color, and other visual properties. Just keep in mind these are background-only objects, so you cannot fly toward them.
