Nether stars are dropped by the Wither, the optional second boss in Minecraft next to the Ender Dragon.

If you’re missing a nether star, you’ll need to fight the Wither. To summon the Wither, you’ll need to build its statue, which requires four blocks of soul sand or soul soil and three wither skeleton skulls. Wither skeletons spawn in Nether Fortresses.
