'''The Sand Spiral Galaxy''' is a galaxy in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. This galaxy is a large barrel with a rapid sand river. This galaxy has many [[Boos]], and Bats. It is the only galaxy (aside from [[Grand Finale Galaxy]]) which features [[Toad|Toads]] besides the [[Toad Brigade]].

The '''Sand Spiral Galaxy''' is a [[galaxy]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. It is a short course set inside and around a large barrel with a rapid sand river, where [[Boo]]s and [[bat (Super Mario Galaxy)|bat]]s act as the main enemies. A gimmick of this level is giving the player the choice to use either the [[Boo Mushroom]] or the [[Bee Mushroom]] to traverse its initial portion.


This galaxy is unlocked when Mario completes the mission [[Faster Than a Speeding Penguin]] in the [[Sea Slide Galaxy]] and [[Luigi and the Haunted Mansion]] in the [[Ghostly Galaxy]], as the latter is supposed to introduce the Boo Mushroom. Once Mario does so, a [[Hungry Luma]] will appear behind the Engine Room, who transforms into the Sand Spiral Galaxy when fed 1000 [[Star Bit]]s.
==Way to unlock==
{{rewrite-you}}
To unlock this galaxy, you must beat the star "Faster Than A Speeding Penguin" in the "Sea Slide Galaxy." Once you do so, a hungry luma will appear, feed the luma, and the way to the Sand Spiral Galaxy is revealed.


==Planets/Areas==
==Missions==
===Wrecked Airship Planet===
===Choosing a Favorite Snack===
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
The goal in the level is to get through a tunnel filled with quicksand. The player starts at a broken airship, and, after the [[Magikoopa]] on board it warps ahead to the tunnel itself, Mario can take a [[Launch Star]] over to the main area. Here he has the choice of becoming [[Boo Mario]] or [[Bee Mario]]. Boo Mario can float infinitely over the quicksand but must watch out for the Boos and the spotlights. Bee Mario will have an easier time avoiding the enemies, but cannot fly infinitely and must make landings on certain sections.

The front half of a damaged airship, which functions as the starting planet of the galaxy. At the end is a [[Launch Star]] that Mario can use to get to the Sinking Sand Planet. Scattered debris float nearby, and the damage where the missing half of the ship should be is depicted in detail, with jagged, protruding chunks of deck, wood, and some individual wooden beams. On the airship there is a [[Magikoopa]] that will retreat to the Sinking Sand Planet if not defeated.


===Sinking Sand Planet===
Once Mario exits the tunnel, he will be launched out the other end of the tunnel to a small area, where can get a [[Rainbow Star]] to become invincible and jump across rotating platforms to the moon in the center, where the Power Star awaits.
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
[[File:SMG Sand Spiral Sinking Sand.png|thumb|200px|left|The Sinking Sand Planet]]
This is a large planet with a barrel-like exterior and a tunnel made of brick inside, through which a river of [[quicksand]] flows. Mario must navigate through the obstacles (which include [[Water Shooter]]s and spotlights) and avoid falling into the sand by either using the Bee Mushroom or the Boo Mushroom. The end of the tunnel marks a [[checkpoint]], and a [[Honey wall|honeycomb wall panel]] appears here, as well as a [[Sling Star]] that launches the player onward.


===Spiral Moon Planets===
The Magikoopa in the beginning of the level will pursue Mario for most of the stage unless he is defeated. He moves too fast for Mario to catch; the player must use [[Star Bits]] to stun him before he can be destroyed.

{{Engine Room}}
This is a small glowing moon with a spiraling series of rocky platforms spinning around it. Mario must cross this spiral while avoiding [[Mikey Mine|Space Mine]]s to reach the moon, where the Power Star is.

Mario can access this area in his [[Bee Mario|bee form]]. If he reaches the area as [[Boo Mario]], however, the power-up wears off. The Purple Toad explains that the moonlight is too bright.

==Trivia==
*This is one of two [[Hungry Luma]] [[Galaxy|Galaxies]] whose unlock condition requires more than one mission to be completed beforehand, not counting missions in the Reactors. The other is the [[Boo's Boneyard Galaxy]].
*Near the entrance, a Red Toad is seen near the Boo Mushroom. The only Red Toad in the [[Toad Brigade]] is [[Captain Toad]], who is always seen with his headlamp and backpack on. He still reacts in the same scared way Captain Toad would upon seeing either of Mario's powered-up forms, while other Toads in the area do not.
*Like [[Sweet Sweet Galaxy]], this galaxy can be accessed without using the pink Launch Star left behind by the Hungry Luma via an unintended interaction: after talking to the Hungry Luma to make the Launch Star appear, [[Flying Mario]] can be used to access the portal instead.{{ref needed}}
