| '''Cosmic Mario''' is a character that appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. He is a galactic clone of [[Mario]] and thus copies his physical appearance, though he is colored blue with multiple stars and has a higher-pitched voice than his normal counterpart.

| Cosmic Mario appears when a [[Prankster Comet#Cosmic Comet|Cosmic Comet]] is orbiting a [[galaxy]]. Upon the player entering, Cosmic Mario appears at the beginning of the [[mission]] and challenges the player to a race. In order to complete the mission, the player must reach the [[Power Star]] before Cosmic Mario does. If Cosmic Mario reaches the Power Star first, the player loses a life and must restart the race. Colliding with Cosmic Mario during the race causes him to release [[Star Bit]]s.

|
| [[Luigi]] also has a cosmic clone, '''Cosmic Luigi''', who replaces Cosmic Mario if the player is playing as Luigi. Unlike Cosmic Mario, Cosmic Luigi takes advantage of shortcuts more often and uses a large number of [[Long Jump|long jump]]s, making him more difficult to beat.
| | '''Cosmic Mario''' is a character in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. He appears as a starry clone of [[Mario]], similar in appearance to [[Shadow Mario]]. When a [[Cosmic Comet]] is a galaxy, Cosmic Mario will appear from it and challenge Mario to a race. Mario then has to get through numerous obstacles against Cosmic Mario to get the [[Power Star]]. |

|
| At the start of a race, if the player holds {{button|wii|Stick}} up, then {{button|wii|Z}} when the timer reaches "2," and then hits {{button|wii|A}} just as the race starts, Mario or Luigi gets a [[Rocket Start|Start Dash]], shown by a yellow color appearing on Mario or Luigi, shrinking gradually as a marker at the end of this effect.
| | If the player is playing as [[Luigi]], Cosmic Luigi will appear in place of Cosmic Mario. Cosmic Luigi is far more intelligent, making use of short cuts and many long jumps. As a result, he is much faster than Cosmic Mario. This is done to add some extra challenge when playing as Luigi. |

| | *Cosmic Mario's appearance is similar to Shadow Mario, a disguise of [[Bowser Jr.]] which he created with the [[Magic Paintbrush]]. However, the Magic Paintbrush was found by the runner [[Il Piantissimo]] on the beach in the ending of ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', and he could have used the Paintbrush to become Cosmic Mario. |

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *An unused Cosmic Mario race in the [[Space Junk Galaxy]] is found in the game files. When players start a race, they start at the coordinate 0,0,0, which is the air on which they land on the starting planet. Cosmic Mario cannot win this race, and players still have to use [[Star Chip]]s to unlock a [[Launch Star]], but Cosmic Mario does not need to use the Star Chips to use a Launch Star. Cosmic Mario does not use voice clips in this variant.<ref>

| |
| *Cosmic Mario/Cosmic Luigi's theme uses a similar arrangement to [[Shadow Mario]]'s theme of the same music, the [[Underground Theme]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''
| |
| *On the covers for the ''[[Super Mario Galaxy Original Soundtrack]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2 Original Soundtrack]]'', Mario's silhouette is dark blue covered in stars, resembling Cosmic Mario.
| |
| *Prior to Cosmic Mario's debut, [[Metal Mario]] had an alternate color scheme where he could be selected into blue in ''[[Mario Golf (Nintendo 64)|Mario Golf]]'' for the [[Nintendo 64]].
| |
| *The Cosmic Mario/Cosmic Luigi races are the only races in the game that do not have placement markers for what place Mario/Luigi is in.
