'''Cosmic Cove Galaxy''' is a galaxy in [[World 2 (Super Mario Galaxy 2)|World 2]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. It is primarily a water-themed level, where players can freeze the water in the first mission to skate on the ice and up waterfalls, or swim through caverns to find key objects. [[Penguin]]s such as [[Coach (Super Mario Galaxy)|Coach]] and [[Penguru]] appear as inhabitants of this galaxy, where they can assist players by giving them helpful hints. Common enemies here include [[Skeeter]]s and [[Koopa Troopa]]s, as well as underwater enemies such as [[Snoodle]]s. This is the only galaxy in World 2 with two main missions. One of its levels, [[Catch That Star Bunny]], makes Cosmic Cove Galaxy the only galaxy in the game that has a mission that involves catching a [[Star Bunny]].


No [[Prankster Comet]]s appear in this galaxy until the [[Green Star]]s become available.

After players emerge from the tunnel, they appear in this vast area. The entire area is underwater except for some platforms and a tower. The [[Comet Medal]] is located inside one of the giant shells underwater. A [[Jam-o'-War]] lurks underwater as well as many [[Skeeter]]s striding on the water and [[Cheep Cheep]]s. There is a [[Hungry Luma]] here that will transform into the Holey Planet if fed 15 coins. [[Penguru]] can be found on one of these platforms. During the first mission, there is a switch that can freeze the water, allowing the player to traverse it with ease.

The Aquarium Planet A<ref name=Noclip></ref> consists of an underwater sidescroller section with a few Penguins, [[Brick Block]]s and [[Gringill]]s in it. Many [[thorny flower|prickly plant]]s grow from the walls of this cavern. A [[Warp Pipe]] that leads to the Aquarium Planet B is found at the end.

The Aquarium Planet B<ref name=Noclip></ref> has a body of water hovering in space, surrounded by several small [[black hole]]s. All the liquid in the area forms a maze, with some platforms floating over the surface. Near the end of the area, there are some red-framed tubes with large cubical water bubbles moving through them and a group of [[Star Bit]]s forming a star in the background. [[Mikey Mine]]s, [[Goomba]]s, a [[Paragoomba]] and a [[Jammyfish]] can be found here. The player visits this planet to move around in a side-scroller to find a [[Key]] to free a [[Luma]] in the [[#Starting Area|Starting Area]].

[[File:SaturnRockPlanet.png|thumb|right|200px|Mario heading toward the {{conjectural|Water Core Planet|planet}}.]]
The Drill Water Spring Planet<ref name=Noclip></ref> is a spherical rock with a large stone wall splitting both halves. Players arrive on bottom side of the planet full of [[Fizzlit]]s here. There is also a [[Spin Drill]] that players must use to get to the other side of the planet. Here, there are some [[Mechakoopa|Micro Mecha-Bowser]]s which players must destroy to unlock the shield protecting a dust patch. After players use a drill on it, water comes out and floods the planet. Players have to swim to the platform where the [[Power Star]] is located. Captain Toad appears near this planet with his [[Starshroom]], wanting to take a swim for his vacation, although he cannot due to the water being frozen.

After players feed the [[Hungry Luma]] in the Cosmic Cove area fifteen coins, it transforms into this planet. It has a [[Star Bunny]] that challenges Mario to catch it. It also has a blue [[!

The player must be careful not to fall in the holes that lead to the [[black hole]] in the center of the planet and be wary of the [[Skeeter]]s that lurk here.

Players should do the mission Twin Falls Hideaway. After players freeze the water and wall jump the Twin Falls, they should skip breaking the crystal for freeing the Power Star. Instead, they should jump off the edge of the cliff where the Power Star is to get the level's first Green Star.

==Trivia==
*In the Twin Falls Hideaway Star close to the Water Drilling Planet, Captain Toad floats in mid-air out of view. This happens because the developers forgot to group him in with the group of objects dealing with the Exploring the Cosmic Cavern mission, making him a universal object.<ref>SwankyBox.
