Rules:
Normal Sudoku Rules Apply. Normal variant rules do not!
The galaxy is forming, and stars are exploding. The given circles are stars, and the digits on the stardust arrows must sum to the star value in the circle. Each digit/value on the stardust arrows must decrease away from the star and previous digits/values. In other words, consider each arrow head the bulb of a galactic thermometer!
Digits on a white dwarf kropki dot must be consecutive.
Digits on a purple nebula renban cloud must be consecutive AND MUST be in order smallest to largest / largest to smallest as they continue to orbit each other. (for sake of clarity, exactly two digits will not be consecutive with each other on these closed-loop renban lines.)
Enjoy!

Corrected the Sudokupad link to show the colors better. Same puzzle. Cosmetic changes only.

Added a second link with the correct elements from Sudokulab. It is technically correct, but visually messy. Looking forward to help and comments on building better looking puzzles, thanks!
