The '''Melty Molten Galaxy''' is a galaxy in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. It's quite a large galaxy, made completely of lava and rock, and is situated between two stars, a red one and a light purple one.  There's many [[Star Ring]]s here, allowing Mario to traverse the massive planet.

The '''Melty Molten Galaxy''' is a [[galaxy]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', and the last major galaxy to be unlocked in a dome. It is quite a large galaxy, made completely of lava and rock. It is situated between two stars, a red one and a light purple one, with large streams of plasma pouring from the former to the latter.  There are many [[Launch Star]]s here, allowing Mario to traverse the massive planet. There are also some small planetoids around it. This is the only galaxy that has [[Star Chip]]s in all three missions and the comet mission. This is one of the two galaxies to feature the theme for the Speedy and Daredevil Comets in a non-comet mission, the other being the [[Dusty Dune Galaxy]].


This galaxy's music is in the key of D {{wp|Phrygian mode|Phrygian}}, which is typically used to produce a melancholic or dark sound in compositions.

This area is a large disk of lava connected to the main planet. It contains a small [[volcano]] with two large platforms on either side of it. Both have various obstacles and enemies. Small steel platforms make a path between the two platforms. The volcano has a switch inside that makes the lava rise and release [[Star Bit]]s. In the [[The Sinking Lava Spire|first mission]], only the platforms leading to the side of the plateau on the second platform with the collapsible wall nearby will be present. In the [[Through the Meteor Storm|second mission]], all of the steel platforms are absent, since Mario has to light some torches, and [[Meteor|meteors]] bombard the planet. In the [[Fiery Dino Piranha|third mission]], the meteors have vanished, and the steel platforms leading to an indent in the plateau are present. In the [[Red-Hot Purple Coins|Purple Comet mission]], both sets of steel platforms are present.
{{br}}


====Volcano====
The '''Lava Planet''' is a giant planet in the game Super Mario Galaxy. It contains many obstacles and features relating to the ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' level, [[Lethal Lava Land]]. It is covered in a sea of lava. This level introduced trailer-viewers to a new enemy and new explorable uses for [[Sling Star]]s.
[[File:SMG Melty Molten Volcano.png|thumb|left|Mario as he blasts off from the volcano]]
[[File:SMG Inside Volcano.png|thumb|200px|Mario inside the volcano]]
There is a [[Launch Star]] above the volcano, but if [[Mario]] drops into the volcano, there is a [[ground-pound switch|Ground Pound Switch]] on a rock floor at the bottom, which causes [[Star Bit]]s to appear. However, the volcano will erupt ten seconds after Mario activates the switch, so he will have to use a [[Sling Star]] at the bottom to get out. In the [[Purple Coin]] mission ([[Melty Molten Galaxy#Red Hot Purple Coins|Red Hot Purple Coins]]), there are purple coins down the sides of and inside the volcano and the lava will not rise. One coin in this mission is placed on top of a small lava ring inside the volcano, requiring a health slice to reach it, unless the player uses a good timed [[spin]] or a [[Long Jump]].
{{br}}


===Small Glass and Lava Planets===
There is a small volcano on this planet with a [[Launch Star]] on top, there are outrageous obstacles over its atmosphere that can be explored with [[Pull Star]]s, hot rock hills, decimatable rocks stand in the lava such as the ones in [[Ricco Harbor]] in the game ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', and more.
[[File:SMG Melty Molten Glass and Lava Planets.png|200px|thumb|Mario Crossing the {{conjectural|Small Glass and Lava Planets|planets}}]]
These are a collection of six small lava planets and three small glass planets, though Mario only visits this region after he leaves the Starting Planet in the [[The Sinking Lava Spire|first mission]]. Mario must navigate his way through these planets via [[Pull Star]]s avoiding [[lava burst]]s that will knock him off the Pull Star path and take him into their gravity fields causing Mario to bounce across the lava surface. In the Daredevil Run, Mario needs to wait for these arcs to pass or he will be hit and lose a life.
{{br}}


===Hardening Lava Planets===
This planet also contains the '''Lava Spire'''.
[[File:SMG Melty Molten Saucer.png|200px|thumb|left|The {{conjectural|Hardening Lava Planets|planets}}.]]
[[File:SMG Melty Molten Spinning Hardening Lava Planet.png|200px|thumb|The {{conjectural|Hardening Lava Planets|planets}}.]]
These are two hardening planets made of magma and cooled lava on their surfaces that [[Mario]] can walk on. They are home to several [[Li'l Cinder]]s. One spins and the other does not. Beside them lies a crashed [[Topman]] [[UFO]] that serves as a starting platform; another one, tipped over and scorched, is seen later, but not used as a platform. These planets have their own gravity despite being embedded in the main planet's surface, and they are visited in the first and third missions, where Mario visits the static one in the former and both in the latter. These UFOs are a reference to an earlier version of the game, where [[Topmaniac]] was originally planned to be fought in this galaxy, but the idea was eventually scrapped.<ref>Game Developer's Conference 2007 Super Mario Galaxy Trailer [https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GJx9DSJFvTU]</ref>

===Lava Spire===
===Fiery Geo Planet===
[[File:SMG Sinking Lava Spire.png|200px|thumb|Mario flies to the Lava Spire]]
The '''Fiery Geo Planet''' is a small planet between Melty Molten's two massive stars, where the Fiery [[Dino Piranha]] can be fought. Though its cracks glow red from volcanic activity, they only harm you can encounter on this planet is from the Pirahna its self.
[[File:SMG Lava Spire Crystals.png|200px|thumb|left|The Lava Spire collapses]]
The Lava Spire is a large rock formation surrounded by other large rock formations that are intertwined. The spire is also home to many [[Li'l Cinder]]s. On top of the spire, a [[Power Star]] is incased in a large ice crystal that Mario must get to. When Mario steps on the spire, the spire begins to sink, so he must run up the spire or be engulfed by the lava. There is a shortcut at the beginning of the spire that leads Mario halfway up and gets him a [[1-Up Mushroom]]. Mario only visits this planet in the first mission after his departure from the static Hardening Lava Nodule.
{{br}}


===Thwomp Planet===
==Missions==
[[File:SMG Thwomp Planet.png|200px|thumb|left|The {{conjectural|Thwomp Planet|planet}}.]]
===The Sinking Lava Spire===
This planet is only visited in the second mission, being a large stone octagon that is covered by three [[Thwomp]]s on the second, fourth, and fifth faces, with a 1-Up Mushroom under the third Thwomp. The planet's core is a hollow cavity haunted by a [[black hole]] that Mario must avoid as he runs around the planet to a [[Launch Star]] leading to the Cooled Lava Area. The third face has a gap that Mario must jump over. However, he must also avoid the meteor that falls in, lest he gets knocked back with the risk of falling into the black hole. The sixth and seventh faces have bumps that Mario must climb over and more meteors that he must avoid, and after that is a Launch Star. If Mario attempts a [[Long Jump]] at the first face to get to the seventh, he will fall into the gap where the eighth face should be and get eaten by the black hole at the core.
Mario must travel the galaxy until he lands on a mountain, which begins to sink. Mario then must get to the top of the mountain quicklyand smash the crystal to gain the [[Power Star]].
{{br}}
 
===Cooled Lava Area===
[[File:SMG Melty Molten Cooled Lava Area.png|200px|thumb|left|Mario collecting Star Chips in the {{conjectural|Cooled Lava Area|area}}]]
This is a small network of cooled lava platforms that is home to several [[Lava Bubble]]s. Mario must find five [[Star Chip|Yellow Star Chips]] to continue, and he only visits this planet in the second mission, in which it is constantly bombarded by meteors.
{{br}}
 
===U Tower Planet===
[[File:SMG U Tower Planet.png|200px|thumb|The {{conjectural|U Tower Planet|planet}}.]]
This planet is a large U-shaped planet of cooled magma with stone built onto it to make it like a tower from a castle. The inside of the planet is made out of hot magma. On one side of the planet, there is a [[Launch Star]] that leads to the Lava Ball Rolling Planet, although a cage that [[Mario]] lands on after his departure from the Cooled Lava Area blocks it off from access. On the other side of the planet, there is a double-sided [[Bill Blaster]] that will try to stop Mario from continuing, although the [[Bullet Bill]]s it launches can be used to destroy the aforementioned cage, allowing him to continue.
{{br}}
 
===Lava Ball Rolling Planet===
[[File:SMG Melty Molten Lava Ball Rolling Area.png|200px|thumb|Mario in the {{conjectural|Lava Ball Rolling Area|area}}.]]
This planet is made up of many lava panels, four stone panels, and a humongous tunnel of lava. The tunnel has many holes in it that Mario can fall through to his death. It also contains a row of blue beams on each side, though they are non-solid and do not affect Mario. Mario must roll on the [[Star Ball|Rolling Ball]] to the finish line so he could receive the Power Star. There is a shortcut Mario can take to avoid the moving lava platforms: he can jump to the stone platform with a [[1-Up Mushroom]]. Jumping on this platform will cause the ball to slow down, so the player must roll the ball near the back edge of the platform, build up momentum, and jump. It saves the time of going over the moving lava platforms.
{{br}}
 
===Disk Planet===
[[File:SMG Melty Molten Disk Planet.png|200px|thumb|Mario in the {{conjectural|Disk Planet|planet}}.]]
This is a small disk with a spherical lava core, being exclusive to the third mission. It has several platforms that rotate around the core that [[Mario]] must ride and collect five yellow [[Star Chip]]s to continue to the Steel Platform Planet.
{{br}}
 
===Steel Platform Planet===
[[File:Lava Planet Steel Platform Area.png|200px|thumb|left|The {{conjectural|Steel Platform Area|area}}]]
This is a small area with many steel platforms and sling stars, exclusive to the mission [[Fiery Dino Piranha]]. Mario must use the [[Sling Star]]s to avoid falling into the lava and dodge the [[Lava Geyser]]s. At the end of this area, there is [[Lumalee]] that Mario could decide to buy either a [[1-Up Mushroom]] or a [[Life Mushroom]] for the battle against [[Dino Piranha]], who has taken on a fiery form.
{{br}}


===Fiery Dino Piranha Planet===
===Through the Meteor Storm===
[[File:SMG Melty Molten Fiery Dino Piranha Planet.png|200px|thumb|left|Mario confronting the fiery Dino Piranha on its planet.]]
In this mission, meteors are constantly falling from the sky. Near the end of the mission, a part similar to [[Rolling Green Galaxy]] must be completed where Mario must ride a [[Star Ball]] to the end of a lava covered course.
This planet is the home to the fiery [[Dino Piranha]], and is a copy of the Dino Geo Planet from the [[Good Egg Galaxy]]. Mario only visits this planet in the third mission, and first arrives on the planet as he lands on the Dino Piranha egg and cracks it, which makes a slight crack on the egg. After Mario spins the ball at the end of the tail, the Dino Piranha breaks out of his egg and tries to attack Mario. Mario is rewarded with a Power Star after he defeats Dino Piranha.
{{br}}
 
===Lava Sea Planet===
[[File:SMG Melty Molten Lava Tide Planet.png|200px|thumb|Mario in the {{conjectural|Lava Sea Planet|area}}.]]
This is a small rock planet with a sea of lava around it, created by feeding a [[Hungry Luma]] 80 [[Star Bit]]s. The lava has a tide that reveals a network of paths when low, which Mario can advance through, but the lava covers up the path when it is a high tide. The grey parts of the planet will not be covered up, including where Mario lands. Mario must scuttle across the planet, avoiding high tides and Burn Bits to retrieve five [[Silver Star]]s and get the Power Star for the secret mission [[Burning Tide]]. This Hungry Luma is absent in the [[Lava Spire Daredevil Run|Daredevil Comet mission]], and even if Mario fed him beforehand, the planet will not appear in the Daredevil Comet mission either.

==Notes==
===Red-Hot Purple Coins===
*This is the only galaxy to feature the [[Star Ball|Rolling Ball]] but not have the word "Rolling" in its name, due to the Rolling Ball being a minor part of the galaxy, rather than the central focus.
Mario must collect 100 [[Purple Coins]] on the main planet. There is no time limit.
*Due to a mistake, the low-resolution model for the fiery Dino Piranha's planet still uses [[tcrf:Super Mario Galaxy/Unused Models#DinoPackunBattlePlanetLow|the design]] it had in the E3 build of ''Super Mario Galaxy''. This outdated model can be seen from the starting planet.<ref>Alex SMG (December 29, 2018). [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJMR87XbSAc Melty Molten Galaxy Planet Oddity]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved October 19, 2024.</ref>


==References==
===Burning Tide===
<references/>
Mario must feed a [[Hungry Luma]] 80 [[Star Bit]]s to get to a new planet where there are 5 [[Silver Stars]] he must collect. The islands on the planet are sinking and the player must stay in the higher areas until the lava level lowers and it's safe to walk to the next part.
