The phrase "ad astra per alia porci" is a humorous play on the Latin phrase "ad astra per aspera," which means "to the stars through difficulties." Translated literally, "ad astra per alia porci" means "to the stars on the wings of a pig." It is not a traditional or serious Latin phrase, but rather a whimsical rephrasing.
