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 '''Space Junk Galaxy''' is a galaxy in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. This Galaxy has a futuristic/space theme. A lot of the objects are silver or blue, and there is a spaceship in it.


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.

Mario fights two bosses in this galaxy: [[Kamella]] and [[Tarantox]].

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.
{{br}}


===Star Dust Rolling Step A===
Mario fights two bosses in this galaxy: [[Tarantox]] and [[Kamella]].
{{dev data}}
[[File:SMG Star Dust Rolling Step A.png|200px|thumb|Mario on the Star Dust Rolling Step A.]]
The Star Dust Rolling Step A<ref>File name of the object (Partition 0/ObjectData/StarDustRollingStepA.arc).</ref> is a small prism-shaped planet made out of glass. It has two metal plates on either base. There are three [[Crystal (Super Mario Galaxy)|Crystal]]s that contain Star Bits on its surface.

{{dev data}}
[[File:SMG Space Junk Pull Stars.png|thumb|left|200px|G Capture Tutorial Zone]]
These are two small fields of asteroids that Mario passes through in all of the missions but the second mission in the G Capture Tutorial Zone<ref>File name of the zone, GCaptureTutorialZone.</ref>. There are two fields one at the beginning of the galaxy and one near the [[Assembly Block]] area. Mario uses small paths of pull stars to navigate himself through the fields. Strangely one of asteroids in the first field is shaped like an "L". If Mario positions himself correctly he can land on these asteroids by using nearby planet's gravity, as these asteroids do not have their own gravity.
{{br}}


===Lava Transparent Planet===
=== Crystal Planet ===
{{dev data}}
[[File:Orb Planets.png|200px|thumb|Mario collecting Star Chips on one of the three Lava Transparent Planets.]]
The Lava Transparent Planets<ref>File name of the object (Partition 0/ObjectData/LavaTransparentPlanet.arc).</ref> are three spherical glass planets with [[Amp]]s moving around them. These planets have a ring of metal around their surface and two metal plates on either side. There are five [[Star Chip]]s moving about on these planets. After collecting the Star Chips, Mario can use a Launch Star to go to the Rocket Planet.
{{br}}


===Planet Rockets===
[[image: Crystalplanet.jpg|thumb|left|The very shiny, treasure-filled Crystal Planet.]]
{{dev data}}
[[File:SMG Planet Rocket.png|200px|thumb|left|The Planet Rocket.]]
The Planet Rockets<ref>File name of the object (Partition 0/ObjectData/PlanetRocket.arc).</ref> are a disconnected pair of big, long, red-and-tan space ships floating around in space. One is encountered in the first mission of the galaxy, and the other in the third. They have two Crystals containing coins growing out of its portholes. On the one in the third mission, the end of the planet features a Sling Pod, along with a few [[Spoing]]s and a [[Life Mushroom]]. These planets resembles [[Hocotate Ship|Olimar and Louie's ship]] from ''[[pikipedia:Pikmin 2|Pikmin 2]]''.
{{br}}


===Blue Star Capsule Planets===
The '''Crystal Planet''' is a planet that is encountered shortly before the battle with [[Tarantox]].  
[[File:Pull Star Planets.png|200px|thumb|Three Blue Star Capsule Planets]]
The Blue Star Capsule Planets<ref>"''Mario must navigate a Pull Star path around this galaxy, including a carefully executed swing through '''Blue Star Capsule Planet'''.''" — [[Pull Star Path]] ''Super Mario Galaxy'' trading card info</ref><ref>File name of the object (Partition 0/ObjectData/BlueStarCupsulePlanet.arc). Note that "capsule" is misspelled.</ref> are three large, blue versions of the orb planets with [[Pull Star]]s inside of them. These planets act as large Pull Stars that Mario can walk on. The planets seem to amplify the power of the pull stars inside of them seen from the blue glow the planets emit. This means the player is able to grab onto any part of the planets with their cursor and be affected by the pull star. The third planet is a [[checkpoint]].
{{br}}


===T Shape Planet===
At first, [[Mario]] walks on top of it, which is practically a transparent crystal orb. Once he finds the passageway in, he can go under the crystal layer and explore underneath, where [[1-Up Mushroom]]s and other treats are waiting. There are also a few [[Space Rabbit]]s underneath the crystal layer, who guide Mario through to the [[Launch Star]].
{{dev data}}
[[File:SMG T-Shape Planet.png|200px|thumb|left|Mario facing some Spoings on the T Shape Planet.]]
The T Shape Planet<ref>File name of the object (Partition 0/ObjectData/TShapePlanet.arc).</ref> resembles a tower. It contains some [[Spoing]]s. It is also where Mario finds the [[Toad Brigade]], all of them trapped in a [[Crystal (Super Mario Galaxy)|Crystal]]. After Mario frees them all, the [[Starshroom]] will appear and the [[Toad Brigade]] theme will play. If Mario leaves and goes back to the Blue Star Capsule Planets, the main theme of this galaxy resumes again. Various items and a [[Goomba]] are also trapped in crystals. On the top of the Starshroom is a [[Sling Star]], which will take Mario to the Assembly Block Area.
{{br}}


===Assembly Block Planet===
=== Rock Planet ===
{{dev data}}
[[File:SMG Assembly Block Planet.png|200px|thumb|Mario on the main platform of the Assembly Block Planet.]]
The only static planet in the Assembly Block Planet<ref>File name of the object (Partition 0/ObjectData/AssemblyBlockPlanet.arc).</ref> is the platform on which Mario starts out on, which contains a [[checkpoint]]. This planet plays the "Space Athletic" music and somewhat resembles the starting planet of the galaxy. The "Space Junk" in this area is made up of [[Assembly Block]]s. Here, Mario must move around to find that Assembly Blocks will help him by giving him a floor to walk on. There are five [[Silver Star]]s scattered about that, once collected, will combine to create a Power Star. The player however, must be very careful as to not fall off the Assembly Blocks and into a [[black hole]]. Later, a more stylized Assembly Block Area is used for a Purple Coin mission.
{{br}}


===Airships===
[[image: Rockplanet.jpg|thumb|right|The Rock Planet.]]
[[File:SMG Airships Screenshot.png|200px|thumb|left|The Toad Brigade leader's view of the Airships.]]
In the second mission, several airships appear. Members of the Toad Brigade are trapped on the airships. Mario 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 [[Green Shell]]. 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]]. Mario will get a Power Star for defeating Kamella. The first and third airships are [[checkpoint]]s.
{{br}}


===Small Maze Planet===
The '''Rock Planet''' is a planet mostly made of maroon, dark red, brownish rock. It has a sort of arch, as seen in the picture. This planet is an entrance to Tarantox's lair. The pre-boss music begins when [[Mario]] lands on this planet, and the spider's [[Sticky Planet]] is nearby.  
{{dev data}}
[[File:SMG Small Maze Planet.png|200px|thumb|The very shiny, treasure-filled Small Maze Planet.]]
The Small Maze Planet<ref>File name of the object (Partition 0/ObjectData/SmallMazePlanet.arc).</ref> is a planet that is encountered in the third mission shortly before the battle with [[Tarantox]], and marks a [[checkpoint]]. At first, [[Mario]] walks on top of the planet, which is practically a transparent crystal orb. Once he finds the passageway in, he can go under the crystal layer and explore underneath, where there are [[1-Up Mushroom]]s, [[coin]]s, [[Star Bit]]s, and [[Goomba]]s. Mario can still grab [[Star Bit]]s on the surface from in the maze with his [[Star Pointer]]. There is a [[Launch Star]] in this planet, which will blast Mario out of its glassy surface, and take him to the Grave Stone A planet. There is also a [[Hungry Luma]] on the surface of the planet, which will take Mario to the Yoshi Head Planet. In the first mission, the Launch Star path from the Lava Transparent Planets to the Rocket Planet goes around this planet.
{{br}}


===Grave Stone A===
The Rock Planet is the first planet in the game to have a [[Sling Pod]] and is the beginning of a long path of them.
{{dev data}}
[[File:SMG Grave Stone A Planet.png|200px|thumb|left|Grave Stone A]]
The Grave Stone A<ref>File name of the object (Partition 0/ObjectData/GraveStoneA.arc).</ref> is a planet mostly made of gray stone. It has a sort of arch, as seen in the picture. This planet is an entrance to Tarantox's lair and marks a [[checkpoint]]. The pre-boss music begins when [[Mario]] lands on this planet, and the Grave Stone B planet is nearby. [[Spoing]]s also dwell here. To proceed, Mario must use the Sling Pod to launch the Toad to Grave Stone B, before launching himself also.


===Grave Stone B===
=== Space Ship ===
[[File:SMG Grave Stone B.png|200px|thumb|Grave Stone B and the end of Grave Stone A]]
Grave Stone B is a small block with a Sling Pod that launches Mario to the [[Space Junk Galaxy#Planet Rocket|Planet Rocket]], and contains a few Star Bits. The pink Toad found on Grave Stone A will thank Mario for saving him.


===Grave Stone C===
[[image: Spaceshipgalaxy.jpg|thumb|left|The Space Ship.]]
[[File:SMG Space Junk Spoing.png|200px|thumb|left|Grave Stone C]]
After launching from the Planet Rocket, Mario will land on Grave Stone C, which is an L-shaped platform that contains several Spoings. The player must use the Sling Pod at the end to launch Mario to the Phantom Boss Spider Zone.
{{br}}


===Phantom Boss Spider Zone===
The '''Space Ship''' is a "planet" that consists mostly of just coins. It is a big, long, red-and-tan space ship floating around in space. It is encountered on the route to Tarantox. At the end of it is a Sling Pod, and that's literally all there is, along with a few [[Cosmic Scuttle Bug]]s. The ship is actually [[Captain Olimar|Olimar's]] spaceship from [[Pikmin]].
{{dev data}}
[[File:SMG Phantom Boss Spider Zone.png|200px|thumb|The Phantom Boss Spider Zone, with its shell over it, just before Mario breaks it in half.]]
The Phantom Boss Spider Zone<ref>File name of the zone, PhantomBossSpiderZone.</ref> is exceptionally large and looks like a giant version of the top of a [[Sling Pod]]. In fact, Mario uses a Sling Pod to get to the planet, breaking its shell open and revealing a giant sticky spider web, where he fights Tarantox, who is frozen inside the Sling Pod Planet. Several [[Coin]]s are also stuck in the web, and can be freed using the [[Star Pointer]] to restore some of Mario's health during the battle. After defeating Tarantox, Mario will get a Power Star. There's also a green [[Toad (species)|Toad]] inside the planet, stuck in a Sling Pod.
{{br}}


===Yoshi Head Planet===
=== Sticky Planet ===
{{dev data}}
[[File:SMG Wooden Yoshi Head.png|thumb|200px|left|The Yoshi Head Planet.]]
The Yoshi Head Planet<ref>File name of the object (Partition 0/ObjectData/YoshiHeadPlanet.arc).</ref> is a small wooden planet in the shape of [[Yoshi]]'s head that shoots steam out of its nostrils. This appears to be the third reference to Yoshi in ''Super Mario Galaxy'', the first being the Yoshi game file icon, and the second being the [[Good Egg Galaxy#Egg Planet|Yoshi Egg planet]] from the [[Good Egg Galaxy]]. This planet is home to a number of [[Goomba]]s. These Goombas do not release any Star Bits or coins after they are defeated. When all of them have been destroyed by [[Mario]], he will earn a hidden [[Power Star]]. In addition, when Mario defeats two Goombas in a row by jumping on top of them without touching the ground in between, a counting total will appear on the screen beginning with the number 2. If Mario can continue doing this until he defeats a total of eight Goombas, he will receive an [[extra life]]. Any further Goombas that are defeated without touching the ground will also earn additional extra lives for Mario. This is the only planet in the entire game on which this is possible.

==Trivia==  
=== Yoshi's Unexpected Appearance ===
*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>
After Mario feeds a Hungry Luma, it turns into the Yoshi Head Planet. On this planet, the player must defeat all the coinless, star-bit-less Goombas to get the [[Power Star]] to appear. A counter is kept for the amount of times Mario jumps on Goombas consecutively.
*This is the only galaxy in the game to feature two timed Prankster Comets.
*Early versions of the game had Space Junk Galaxy planets in other galaxies such as [[Good Egg Galaxy]] and [[Ghostly Galaxy]].
*Most planets in Tarantox's Tangled Web were present in the E3 2006 demo.
*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.
