terrarian and steve are technically equal power, since they both have infinite water buckets they can carry (even though terrarian can run faster and jump higher with said water buckets). if you don't count those, the terrarian is still stronger since he can carry LIVE STARS from OUTER SPACE and still run at like 20mph

The Terrarian is DEFINITELY stronger. Whilst yes, Steve can carry massive blocks of gold, 64 per stack, made of 9 ingots of pure gold, the Terrarian can carry massive thrones, 9999 per stack, made of 30 INGOTS of pure gold.

But that's not all. Sure, steve's blue ice block DEFINITELY weighs SO MUCH MORE than gold (as proven with math) it is SO SMALL in comparison to the one... The only... Bottomless Lava Bucket. (Lava is heavier than water and honey and shimmer has no confirmed weight making it the heaviest of the bottomless buckets)

But it doesn't even matter! They're bottomless! They each weigh infinite tons! And the Terrarian acts like it's nothing! And last off.. Steve has only 20 health (without buffs) and The Terrarian, EVEN WITHOUT LIFE CRYSTALS/LIFE FRUIT, has 100 base health, with a maximum of 500 (without buffs).

Most weapons that the Terrarian could use on Steve would oneshot him, even with Netherite armor, all it would take is like, 1 swing from a Night's Edge and he's atomized!
PS: The fallen stars clearly are not actual stars, we can tell as they are not large OR bright enough.
TL;DR: Compared to The Terrarian, Steve is absolutely powerless.

Also, Steve's Water bucket is not infinite. It has a limit, but that limit is so high that it does weigh like a billion pounds

if you place 4 of them next to each other in a certain pattern, it becomes infinite

Fair, but that's only if he places them. Having 4 water buckets in the inventory does not give him infinite water, and Steve can only hold them by the bucket, he cant hold the actual block, meaning he technically cannot carry infinite water.
