  Aspire ad astre: by webishop2002-10-14 12:34:17
    if you're using the preposition "ad..." by pi boy 2002-10-14 12:37:35
you would use accusative, not ablative, hence ad astram.

Your translation souds like it should be the preposition "in," in wouch case ablative works. However, the ablative of astra is astra [+long "a"]
