Bedrock is the unbreakable block at the bottom of the world.

Obtaining

No tool breaks bedrock, so it never drops, and no recipe makes it.

Natural generation

Bedrock fills y=0 in every column of the Overworld, and is scattered from y=1 to y=4, more thinly the higher it is. See World Generation#Water, ice and bedrock.

The Nether has the same layers at its floor, from y=0 to y=4, and at its ceiling, from y=127 down to y=123. See World Generation#The Nether.

Behaviour

No explosion breaks bedrock, and a piston cannot push it.
