	The '''void''' is the space ~~external to~~ the area ~~that can be used for building~~. In vanilla ''Minecraft'', it can be entered by using commands or map editors, in [[Minecraft:Creative]] or [[Minecraft:Spectator]] mode, using glitches, specific [[Minecraft:World seed\|seed]]s, or by reaching [[Minecraft:the End]]. Blocks in the void cannot be changed, and any actions and events trying to generate [[Minecraft:block]]s, such as the generation of [[Minecraft:generated structure]]s and the use of the {{cmd\|fill}} or {{cmd\|setblock}} commands, cannot go beyond this restriction. However, opening a [[Minecraft:shulker box]] can make its [[Minecraft:hitbox]] expand into the void.		The '''void''' is the space outside of the buildable area.

	{{IN\|bedrock\|education}}, the mob's health is depleted by {{health\|4}} every half second at Y=-81 (Overworld) /-17 (the Nether and the End) below, which is irrespective of any of the mob's protective effects ([[Minecraft:armor]], [[Minecraft:Protection]], [[Minecraft:Resistance]] and [[Minecraft:Player#Entity data\|Invulnerability]]).

	At Y=-105/-41, there is a '''void floor''' made of [[Minecraft:invisible bedrock]], preventing [[Minecraft:entities]] from falling further. This barrier can be bypassed by using cheats such as [[Minecraft:Spectator]] mode or {{cmd\|tp}}, after which the player falls infinitely. In Creative and Spectator mode, the player does not die, who is given free access to flying under the void. However, if the player goes to any coordinates beyond X/Z ±8,388,608 (±2<sup>23</sup>), the void floor effectively disappears because players fall through solid blocks (see [[Minecraft:Bedrock Edition distance effects]] for more details). A similar phenomenon can also occur at certain lower coordinates in some instances.<ref>{{bug\|MCPE-39299}}</ref>		At Y=-105/-41, there is a '''void floor''' made of [[Minecraft:invisible bedrock]], preventing [[Minecraft:entities]] from falling further.
