'''Slipsand Galaxy''' is a galaxy in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', located in [[World 5 (Super Mario Galaxy 2)|World 5]]. The level is desert-themed and features desert objects such as cacti. Sand Rivers and [[fireball]]s are the main obstacles in the level. A pyramid can be seen in the background, but serves no special purpose. [[Dry Bones]], [[Magikoopa]]s and [[Pokey Head]]s are common enemies in this galaxy. The [[Fire Flower]] reappears in this galaxy and is used in the boss battle against [[Squizzard]]. At one point, Mario needs to avoid some [[Rhomp]]s while sliding down sand.

This is a long, tubular planet with a fast sand current. During the "[[#Squizzard's Sandy Sinkhole|Squizzard's Sandy Sinkhole]] mission, the current is going with the player. Many [[fireball]]s circle the planet and many [[Spiky Plant]]s serve as an impedement during the mission. The [[Launch Star]] will take the player to the [[#Sandy Waterfall Planet|Sandy Waterfall Planet]]. During the [[#Sailing the Sandy Seas|Sailing the Sandy Seas]] mission, the current is going against Mario. Luckily, there are platforms to allow the player to reach the [[Warp Pipe]] on the other side. If the player goes all the way to the very end in this mission, where the Launch Star was in the last mission, he or she will find three 1-Up Mushrooms. The player must rapidly jump and spin to do this. The [[Launch Star]] will take Mario to the [[#Sandy Sea Planet|Sandy Sea Planet]] during the mission.

A fairly small planet with a sand stream that is going against the player. At the first part, there are a few shifting blocks that will push the player off the planet. Many [[Pokey Sprout]]s appear on this planet. At the second area, it is an S-shaped stream with three [[Cluckboom]]s flying over it. The [[Comet Medal]] can be found in this area. There is a [[Fire Flower]], even more Pokey Sprouts, and more shifting blocks in the next area. There is a [[Midway Point]] and a [[Launch Star]] that takes the player to the Sand Slide Planet at the top.

There is also a [[Fire Flower]] that can be used to light two urns on the Sandy Waterfall Planet, but it's optional because lighting the urns just gives out a 1-Up Mushroom. There is a [[Black hole]] in the middle of the planet.

The planet is basically one long sand stream coming out of the pyramid. The player must slide down the stream to the end while avoiding the [[Rhomp]]s that appear halfway. As the end of the stream gets closer, the width gets thinner. At the bottom of the slide is a small area with a [[Luma Shop]], a [[Midway Point]], and the [[Launch Star]] that takes the player to the [[#Squizzard's Sinkhole Planet|Sinkhole Planet]].

The planet is a bowl-shaped planet filled with sand. The sand moves at a fast current towards the middle where [[Squizzard]] lies. The arena is fenced up and there are some rocks here that can serve as platforms. Two [[Fire Flower]]s appear here. When Squizzard is defeated, the sand stops flowing.

This planet is only traveled to during the [[#Sailing the Sandy Seas|Sailing the Sandy Seas]] mission. It is a vast, wide open area filled with quicksand. The player needs to ride the [[Sand Sailer]] on this planet to avoid falling into the quicksand. Many cacti are found here and slowly deteriorate the ship. [[Magikoopa]]s and a single [[Silver Chomp]] are found on this planet as well. The [[Power Star]] is found at the end of the planet.

===Sailing the Sandy Seas===
[[Image:Sandy Sea.png|thumb|200px|Mario sailing the sandy seas.]]
Players will land on the [[#Starting Planet|Starting Planet]], but this time the sand current is going against them. They have to use the platforms to get to the nearby [[Warp Pipe]]. In the underground, the gravity changes depending on the players' movement. They should find a way to get to the orange Warp Pipe to go back up while avoiding the [[Firebar]]s. They should then take the [[Launch Star]] to the [[#Sandy Sea Planet|Sandy Sea Planet]].
 
On this planet, players must ride the [[Sand Sailer]] through the whole level. The ship goes slow, but generally increases in speed as the [[Power Star]] gets closer. Cacti and [[Magikoopa]]s will try to hinder the players' progress. At the end of the sea, a [[Silver Chomp]] will try to knock players' into the quicksand. Players should strategically avoid the Chomp as it homes-in on them. The [[Power Star]] will be in reach after the ordeal.
