Astral Sand Ball

Astral Sand is a Hardmode block which replaces Sand Blocks in the Astral Infection biome upon its creation. Like Sand Blocks and their counterparts, Astral Sand is affected by gravity and can deal damage to any player or enemy it falls on. If the player is submerged in Astral Sand, they are inflicted with the Suffocation debuff.
