Nec Aspera Terrent would probably be closest translated as 'Hardships do not deter us', Nec meaning a negative, not, Aspera meaning hard work, compare 'Per Aspera Ad Astra', and Terrent meaning deter or resist. Other ways to translate it would be Difficulties Be Damned, as the Kings Regiment translated their motto, or By Difficulty Undaunted as the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers put the same motto. There are other ways, none of them necessarily any more or less correct than the others.

Ardua ad astra is a Latin equivalent of the English phrase "adversity to the stars."Specifically, the feminine adjective ardua means "arduous, difficult, hard to reach, laborious" in this context. The preposition ad means "to." The neuter noun astrameans "stars."The complete phrase is Per ardua ad astrum ("Through adversity to the stars") and serves as the motto of the Royal Air Force (RAF) of the British Armed Forces.
The literal meaning of ardua is something like difficulties, challenges, but it is best known in the saying Per ardua ad astra, which is best translated as Through adversity to the stars. This is the motto of the British Royal Air Force.
Through adversity.
"Per Ardua ad Astra" means "Through adversity to the stars."
