'''World 3: The Far Reaches of the Universe''' is a world traveled to in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. World 3 is an area that contains a green nebula and many green comets and stars. Like the other worlds, there are seven galaxies in World 3, including a boss galaxy, [[Bowser Jr.'s Fearsome Fleet]]. Here, [[Bowser Jr.]] launches a second attack on [[Mario]], this time with his giant robot [[Megahammer]].

|This galaxy makes prominent use of the new [[Cloud Mario]] powerup via [[Cloud Flower]]. Mario needs to use his new power to create clouds to cross the gaps in the galaxy. However, strong winds slowly push the clouds that Mario creates, meaning that the player needs good timing and reaction to overcome this obstacle.

![[File:Freezy Flake Galaxy.png|200px]]<br>[[Freezy Flake Galaxy]]
|This is a winter-themed galaxy, and most of the area is covered in snow or ice. Some planets are covered in lava, on which snowballs can be rolled to create pathways on the lava. Many snow statues of [[Bowser]] and [[Goomba]]s can be found here, which can be destroyed with the use of the [[Snowball]]s or [[Fireball]]s from [[Fire Mario]].

![[File:Rolling Masterpiece Galaxy.png|200px]]<br>[[Rolling Masterpiece Galaxy]]
|This galaxy completely revolves around the use of a [[Star Ball]] which Mario must roll to the end. [[Grinder]]s will cut out pieces of the stage as time passes by and [[Goomba]]s may be a nuisance. [[Bob-omb]]s also appear as enemies here, which can be both beneficial or detrimental to the player, depending on the situation.
