The '''Space Junk Galaxy''' is a [[galaxy]] in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. Like its name implies, it contains lots of discarded space junk, including old rocket ships, floating debris, and various other objects and platforms. A {{wp|spiral galaxy}} can be seen in the background.


The [[Pull Star]] is used much more here than in many of the other galaxies. Also, the [[Toad Brigade]] is found here on a large T-shaped platform covered in crystals; if [[Mario]] frees the Toads trapped in the crystals, the main [[Starshroom]] will appear to take Mario to the next location. There is also a hidden wooden planet shaped like [[Yoshi]]'s head.

The last unique feature of this galaxy is that it has a path that builds itself when Mario approaches it, but crumbles after he leaves. This is later re-used in [[Bowser's Galaxy Reactor]], except the path crumbles after a few seconds automatically.

The Star Dust Start Planet<ref>File name of the object (Partition 0/ObjectData/StarDustStartPlanet.arc).</ref> is a small planet with a glass core functioning as the starting planet. It slowly rotates, so players cannot get into first person view here. A metallic outer shell shaped like a square is attached to the core by small metal triangles. Its core resembles a miniature Star Dust Rolling Step A. Mario starts out on this planet in only 1 mission. In the others he starts on the Red and Yellow Starshrooms.

As the name suggests, there are many [[Pull Star]]s to be used in this mission. Mario begins at the start and must use the conveniently placed Pull Stars to move to the next area, a planet with crystals. He must then use a line of pull stars to get through a ruin of concrete to the Orb Planets. On these planets, he must get all the [[Star Chip]]s without getting the [[Amp]]s. That will create a [[Launch Star]] which will send Mario to the Space Ship. Just off to the side of the space ship are the Pull Star Planets which Mario must use to get to yet another pull star path to take him to the Tower Planet. There are several Scuttlebugs on the tower planet which Mario must defeat to get to the top. At the top, all of the [[Toad Brigade]]'s members are trapped inside crystals. Once Mario frees them, the captain will come down with the Toad Brigade's ship and a launch star to the Space Junk Area. In the Space Junk Area, Mario must travel along the [[Cosmic Platform]] path. Using these appearing/disappearing paths Mario must get five [[Silver Stars]] from the far reaches of the paths to combine them into one [[Power Star]] back at the start of the area. This mission was previously known as ''Beam Star Trail''.

''There is seemingly no place a Power Star might not be hidden, even among the floating debris in the Space Junk Galaxy. Mario must navigate a Pull Star path around this galaxy, including a carefully executed swing through Blue Star Capsule Planet. Grab the Pull Star located in the center of this capsule, which will swing Mario into its gravity field. <small>(Watch for  creepy spiders on the last leg for the Power Star!)</small>''

|description=''On a mission to retrieve a Power Star from Tarantox the giant spider, Mario must stop on this glass-covered planetoid in the Space Junk Galaxy to collect an abundance of Star Bits. Before he blasts off this planet using a Launch Star, take note of the Hungry Luma, and be sure to go back to feed him all those Star Bits Mario collected.''

This mission involves several airships Mario must cross. Once Mario reaches the first airship, he must hit a lever on the first airship to open the bridge, leading to a Sling Star and the second airship. The second airship has a hole that gives [[Green Shell]]s. Mario must throw the Green Shell at the Treasure Chest to unlock a Launch Star. The third airship has green shells, which Mario should throw at a few enemies on the fourth airship to open the bridge to it. The fourth and final airship is purple and red, different than the other airships. It is also where Mario must fight Kamella in order to obtain the [[Power Star]]. Like a regular Magikoopa, she hurls fireballs at Mario, and then throws a green shell which Mario can use to hit Kamella. After two hits Kamella summons Magikoopas of her own, making the battle more difficult. When Kamella is hit the third time, she surrenders the star.

===Tarantox's Tangled Web===
<gallery>
[[File:Tarantox releases poison.png|thumb|right|200px|Mario battles Tarantox.]]
SMG Asset Sprite Preview (Space Junk Galaxy).png|Galaxy preview banner
The player must traverse various planets until they finally break open Tarantox's planet and fight him. [[Sling Pod]]s are first seen here. Mario must travel through several planets using Sling Pods before getting to Tarantox on the Sling Pod Planet. To defeat it, Mario must use the sling pods all around it to hit the large bulb on its butt. Destroy that and it will flip over, revealing three more red bulbs which Mario must destroy before Tarantox flips back over. Each time Tarantox is hit, it will spray sludge out of it's bulbs and mouth at a faster rate. There are also four bulbs on its side but breaking them serves absolutely no purpose other than to stop them from spraying sludge. When defeated, Tarantox will go flying through its web and a [[Power Star]] will come out.

===Yoshi's Unexpected Appearance===
[[File:YoshiPlanet.png|200px|thumb|The Yoshi Planet invaded by several Goombas.]]
After Mario feeds a [[Hungry Luma]] on the Crystal Planet 50 [[Star Bit]]s, it turns into the Yoshi Head Planet. On this planet, the player must kill all the coinless, star-bit-less [[Goomba]]s to make the [[Power Star]] appear. A counter is kept for the amount of times Mario or [[Luigi]] jumps on Goombas consecutively and if the count goes over eight Mario or Luigi will get 1-Ups. Once all the Goombas are gone, a well-deserved [[Power Star]] will appear.

==Trivia==  
==Trivia==  
*There appears to be unused data in the source code of the game for a [[Cosmic Mario]] race which was never added in the official release of ''Super Mario Galaxy'', being replaced with the Speedy Comet mission instead, likely due to the [[Pull Star]]s. However, if the data for the Speed Comet mission is replaced by Cosmic Comet data, the mission can be played like a regular Cosmic Mario race.<ref>Galaxy Hacker (April 25, 2015). [https://youtu.be/Ge5JcN0tXY0 Super Mario Galaxy Unused Cosmic Mario Race in Space Junk Galaxy <nowiki>[FIXED]</nowiki>]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved April 13, 2017.</ref>
*A glitch can be found in Tarantox's Tangled Web. The player must go to the stone planet where a [[Toad]] is trapped in a [[Sling Pod]]. The player must then fire the Sling Pod as far as it will go back along the way that Mario just came. If performed right, the Toad should be standing in midair. Also, if he is flung off toward deep space, depending on the angle, he will either land on the Sling Pod Planet or fall into a black hole and die.
*This is the only galaxy in the game to feature two timed Prankster Comets.
*The Orb Planets in this galaxy are extremely similar in appearance to the [[Melty Molten Galaxy#Small Glass and Lava Planets|small glass and lava planets]] from the [[Melty Molten Galaxy]], only slightly larger.
*Early versions of the game had Space Junk Galaxy planets in other galaxies such as [[Good Egg Galaxy]] and [[Ghostly Galaxy]].
*This is the only galaxy to have both a [[Speedy Comet]] mission and a timed [[Purple Coin]] mission.
*Most planets in Tarantox's Tangled Web were present in the E3 2006 demo.
*Another glitch can be found in Kamella's Airship Attack. The player must go to the second airship, and long jump off the front of it. If performed correctly, the player shall then fall all the way towards the [[#Tower Planet|Tower Planet]]. However, the player will be trapped there and cannot get back without hacking.
*This galaxy is one of the few instances where there are two back-to-back boss missions, not counting [[Prankster Comet]]s or secret Power Stars.
*There appears to be unused data in the source code of the game for a Cosmic Mario race which was never added in the official release of ''Super Mario Galaxy'', being replaced with the Speed Comet mission instead, likely due to the [[Pull Star]]s. However, if the data for the Speed Comet mission is replaced by Cosmic Comet data, the mission can be played like a regular Cosmic Mario race.{{refneeded}}
*This galaxy's main soundtrack sounds eerily similar to ''[[zeldawiki:Midna|Midna's Lament]]'' from ''[[zeldawiki:Twilight Princess|The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess]]''.
