'''Prankster Comets''' are special missions that appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They affect [[Galaxy|galaxies]] by changing the gameplay of the level. Prankster Comets resemble fireballs with tails, like real comets, hence their name.

In ''Super Mario Galaxy'', there are five different types of Prankster Comets, each one a different color: red, white, blue, yellow, or purple. They appear occasionally in the orbits of the 15 major galaxies, starting at the point when [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] collects his thirteenth [[Power Star]]. The missions can be done only if the player travels to a galaxy with a Prankster Comet in orbit. Prankster Comets appear in galaxies only after a specific Power Star in any given galaxy is collected. Also, when a Prankster Comet is in orbit, the player is forced to choose the Prankster Comet's level. No option is given to choose "normal" levels until the Prankster Comet's completion. However, [[Comet Luma]]{{derived}}, who is positioned near the [[Terrace (Super Mario Galaxy)|Terrace]], can shuffle the comets between available galaxies if fed 20 [[Star Bit]]s by the player. Comet Luma's actions either remove all the comets from orbiting in galaxies, remove some of them, or make some appear.

By completing the event, the player receives a Power Star. While a Prankster Comet is in orbit of a galaxy, players need to completely restart the level each time they lose a life, instead of coming back at the last [[checkpoint]]. Once a Prankster Comet's Star has been collected, its Star becomes a selectable mission, only causing the comet to return to the corresponding galaxy at the player's request. All the Prankster Comets (except Purple Comets without time limits) also have their own music that plays during their missions. Prankster Comets give their levels a haze whose color depends on what effects they have.
