How to Get Nuclear Star in A Universal Time 5.0 Update
The A Universal Time (AUT) 5.0 update brings one of the biggest changes in the game’s history, including a brand-new lab system, a space dimension, and powerful new specs. One of the most exciting additions is Nuclear Star, a stand with unique moves, voice-like prompts, and flashy cutscenes. This guide will walk you through the full process of unlocking Nuclear Star step by step.
1. Unlocking the Lab

First, head to the desert area and find the Lab. You’ll need Camelite Fragments from meteorites to get access. Meteorites spawn in the desert, and salvaging them can give you fragments and a key card. Once you have the key card, talk to the Cafeteria NPC inside the lab to start quests.
2. Understanding the Lab Sectors

The lab has three sectors:
- Green Sector (Analytics) – Exchange materials for Reputation, unlock recipes, and take quests.
- Yellow Sector (Refinery) – Craft items from unlocked recipes.
- Red Sector (Gateway) – Access the Wormhole to space.
To enter new sectors, you must upgrade your key card by gaining reputation. Reputation comes from exchanging rare items (Camelite Fragments, Cosmic Remnants, Crystalline Cores) or returning lost equipment crates to the Storage NPC.
3. Getting the Mining Laser
To collect the resources needed for Nuclear Star, you must visit space. First, unlock the recipe for the Mining Laser in the Analytics sector, then craft it in the Refinery sector using Camelite Fragments and Metal Scraps.
4. Gathering Materials in Space
Enter the Gateway with the highest-level key card. The Wormhole takes you to the space dimension with three biomes:
- Biome 1: Harvest orbs.
- Biome 2: Mine crystals for Camelites and fight golems for rare drops.
- Biome 3: Delta farming.
For Nuclear Star, you need Camelites and Cosmic Fragments from Biome 2.
5. Crafting the Catalyst

Once you have enough materials, unlock Advanced Materials in the Analytics sector, then craft the Catalyst in the Refinery using:
- 2 Refined Camelites
- 2 Cosmic Fragments
6. The Boss Fight

With the Catalyst ready, open the Wormhole again, but instead of entering space normally, stand at the bridge to trigger a boss fight against your previous self. This battle is tough—traits and levels are disabled, and you only get one chance before restarting the process. Defeat your past self to progress.
7. Obtaining Nuclear Star
After winning, you’ll receive the Nuclear Core. Use it on Made in Heaven to transform it into Nuclear Star.
So basically try to Farm multiple Camelite Fragments early to save time. Watch out for radiation in space—leave before it reaches 100%. If you fail the boss fight, you’ll need to re-obtain the Catalyst. Nuclear Star is not just visually impressive but also powerful in both PvP and PvE, making it one of the most desirable stands in the 5.0 update A Universal Time.
