The sky is very far away so the raycaster won't reach (default far value is 1000`).

You could do something like:

<a-camera>
  <a-entity id="clickPosition" position="0 0 -100"></a-entity>
</a-camera>

And then you can get the position to add entity via:

document.getElementById('clickPosition').getWorldPosition();
