The '''Space Junk Galaxy''' is a [[galaxy]] in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. Like its name implies, the Space Junk Galaxy contains lots of discarded space junk, inlcuding old rocketships, floating debris, and various other objects and platforms.

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.

==={{conjecturaltext|Orb Planets|planets}}===
===G Capture Tutorial Zone===
[[File:Orb_Planets.PNG|200px|thumb|left|Mario collecting Star Chips on one of the three Orb Planets.]]
{{dev data}}
The Orb Planets are three planets with [[Amp]]s moving around them. There are five [[Star Chip]]s on these planets. After collecting the Star Chips, Mario can use a Launch Star to go to the Rocket Planet.
[[File:SMG Space Junk Pull Stars.png|thumb|left|200px|G Capture Tutorial Zone]]
<br clear=all>
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.

==={{conjecturaltext|Tower Planet|planet}}===
===Lava Transparent Planet===
[[File:Tower_Planet.PNG|200px|thumb|right|Mario facing some Scuttle Bugs on the Tower Planet.]]
{{dev data}}
This planet resembles a tower. It contains some cosmic [[Scuttle Bug]]s. It is also where Mario finds the [[Toad Brigade]], all of them trapped in an [[Item Crystal]]. After Mario frees them all, the [[Starshroom]] will appear. 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 Space Junk Area.
[[File:Orb Planets.png|200px|thumb|Mario collecting Star Chips on one of the three Lava Transparent Planets.]]
<br clear=all>
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.

==={{conjecturaltext|Space Junk Area|planet}}===
===Planet Rockets===
[[File:Space_Junk_Area.PNG|200px|thumb|left|Mario on the main platform of the Space Junk Area.]]
{{dev data}}
Here, Mario must move around to find that [[Cosmic Platform]]s will help him by giving him a floor to walk on. There are five [[Silver Star]]s that, once collected, will combine to create a Power Star. The player however, must be very careful as to not fall off the Space Junk and into a Black Hole. Later, a more stylized Space Junk Area is used for a Purple Coin mission.
[[File:SMG Planet Rocket.png|200px|thumb|left|The Planet Rocket.]]
<br clear=all>
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]]''.

===Blue Star Capsule Planets===
[[File:Airships.PNG|200px|thumb|right|The Toad Brigade leader's view of the Airships.]]
[[File:Pull Star Planets.png|200px|thumb|Three Blue Star Capsule Planets]]
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 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]].

==={{conjecturaltext|Crystal Planet|planet}}===
===T Shape Planet===
[[File:Crystal_Planet.PNG|200px|thumb|left|The very shiny, treasure-filled Crystal Planet.]]
{{dev data}}
The Crystal Planet is a planet that is encountered shortly before the battle with [[Tarantox]]. 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 there are [[1-Up Mushroom]]s, [[coin]]s, [[Star Bits]], and [[Goomba]]s. There is a [[Launch Star]] in this planet, which will blast Mario out of its glassy surface, and take him to the Rock Planet. There is also a [[Hungry Luma]] on the surface of the planet, which will take Mario to the Yoshi Head Planet.
[[File:SMG T-Shape Planet.png|200px|thumb|left|Mario facing some Spoings on the T Shape Planet.]]
<br clear=all>
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.

==={{conjecturaltext|Stone Planet|planet}}===
===Assembly Block Planet===
[[File:Stone_Planet.PNG|200px|thumb|The Stone Planet.]]
{{dev data}}
The Stone Planet 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. The pre-boss music begins when [[Mario]] lands on this planet, and the spider's Sling Pod Planet is nearby. Cosmic [[Scuttle Bug]]s also live here.
[[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}}


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.
===Airships===
On the last Stone Planet, the player can use the Sling Pod there to get back to the Space Ship, by aiming left and then shooting Mario/Luigi. The gravity will pull Mario/Luigi back to the Space Ship
[[File:SMG Airships Screenshot.png|200px|thumb|left|The Toad Brigade leader's view of the Airships.]]
<br clear=all>
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.

==={{conjecturaltext|Space Ship Planet|planet}}===
===Small Maze Planet===
[[File:Space_Ship.PNG|200px|thumb|left|The Space Ship.]]
{{dev data}}
This Space Ship Planet consists mostly of just coins. It is a big, long, red-and-tan space ship floating around in space. It is encountered in the first and third missions. On the route to Tarantox, in the third mission, at the end of it is a Sling Pod, and that's literally all there is, along with a few cosmic [[Scuttle Bug]]s. If one misses the coins to the one of the Stone Planets, one may go from the Sling Pod from the Sling Pod Planet, aim directly left and shoot him, the gravity will pull him here.
[[File:SMG Small Maze Planet.png|200px|thumb|The very shiny, treasure-filled Small Maze Planet.]]
<br clear=all>
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.

===Grave Stone A===
[[File:Sticky_Planet.PNG|200px|thumb|The Sling Pod Planet, with its shell over it, just before Mario breaks it in half.]]
{{dev data}}
The Sling Pod Planet 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 [[Coins]] are also stuck in the web, and can be freed using the 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, stuck in a Sling Pod.
[[File:SMG Grave Stone A Planet.png|200px|thumb|left|Grave Stone A]]
<br clear=all>
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.


==={{conjecturaltext|Yoshi Head Planet|planet}}===
===Grave Stone B===
[[File:SMG Spacejunkgalaxy.jpg|thumb|220px|left|The Yoshi Head Planet.]]
[[File:SMG Grave Stone B.png|200px|thumb|Grave Stone B and the end of Grave Stone A]]
The Yoshi Head Planet 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 nor 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|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 happens. This secret feature is extremely similar to the one that is present on the [[Supermassive Galaxy#Giant Koopas Planet|Giant Koopas Planet]] in the [[Supermassive Galaxy]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. On this planet, if Mario jumps on the shell of one of the three [[Gargantua Koopa Troopa]]s eight times in a row, and then continues jumping on their shells, he can earn an endless supply of lives.
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===
[[File:Pull_Star_Planets.PNG|200px|thumb|right|Two Pull Star Planets.]]
[[File:SMG Space Junk Spoing.png|200px|thumb|left|Grave Stone C]]
These are three blue glass planets with [[Pull Star]]s inside of them. These planets act as Pull Stars and planets at the same time that Mario can walk on.
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.

[[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.]]
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 cosmic Scuttle Bugs 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.
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]].

===Kamella's Airship Attack===
==Profiles==
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 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 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==
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.

“A brave brigade Toad went to search for a Power Star. He went off to that planet and hasn't been seen since. You think he's OK?”
Toad Brigade Captain, Super Mario Galaxy

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 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.

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

Planets[edit]

Star Dust Start Planet[edit]

The title of this article is official, but it comes from development data such as an internal filename. If an acceptable public source is found, then the article should be moved to its appropriate title.

SMG Space Junk Galaxy Starting Planet.png
Mario starts here during the first mission.
Two Starshroom ships in the Space Junk Galaxy.
Mario starts here during the second mission.

The Star Dust Start Planet[1] 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.

Star Dust Rolling Step A[edit]

The title of this article is official, but it comes from development data such as an internal filename. If an acceptable public source is found, then the article should be moved to its appropriate title.

Mario on the Star Dust Rolling Step A.

The Star Dust Rolling Step A[2] is a small prism-shaped planet made out of glass. It has two metal plates on either base. There are three Crystals that contain Star Bits on its surface.

G Capture Tutorial Zone[edit]

The title of this article is official, but it comes from development data such as an internal filename. If an acceptable public source is found, then the article should be moved to its appropriate title.

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[3]. 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.

Lava Transparent Planet[edit]

The title of this article is official, but it comes from development data such as an internal filename. If an acceptable public source is found, then the article should be moved to its appropriate title.

Mario collecting Star Chips on one of the three Lava Transparent Planets.

The Lava Transparent Planets[4] are three spherical glass planets with Amps moving around them. These planets have a ring of metal around their surface and two metal plates on either side. There are five Star Chips moving about on these planets. After collecting the Star Chips, Mario can use a Launch Star to go to the Rocket Planet.

Planet Rockets[edit]

The title of this article is official, but it comes from development data such as an internal filename. If an acceptable public source is found, then the article should be moved to its appropriate title.

The Planet Rocket.

The Planet Rockets[5] 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 Spoings and a Life Mushroom. These planets resembles Olimar and Louie's ship from Pikmin 2.

Blue Star Capsule Planets[edit]

Three Blue Star Capsule Planets

The Blue Star Capsule Planets[6][7] are three large, blue versions of the orb planets with Pull Stars 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.

T Shape Planet[edit]

The title of this article is official, but it comes from development data such as an internal filename. If an acceptable public source is found, then the article should be moved to its appropriate title.

Mario facing some Spoings on the T Shape Planet.

The T Shape Planet[8] resembles a tower. It contains some Spoings. It is also where Mario finds the Toad Brigade, all of them trapped in a 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.

Assembly Block Planet[edit]

The title of this article is official, but it comes from development data such as an internal filename. If an acceptable public source is found, then the article should be moved to its appropriate title.

Mario on the main platform of the Assembly Block Planet.

The only static planet in the Assembly Block Planet[9] 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 Blocks. 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 Stars 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.

Airships[edit]

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 checkpoints.

Small Maze Planet[edit]

The title of this article is official, but it comes from development data such as an internal filename. If an acceptable public source is found, then the article should be moved to its appropriate title.

The very shiny, treasure-filled Small Maze Planet.

The Small Maze Planet[10] 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 Mushrooms, coins, Star Bits, and Goombas. Mario can still grab Star Bits 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.

Grave Stone A[edit]

The title of this article is official, but it comes from development data such as an internal filename. If an acceptable public source is found, then the article should be moved to its appropriate title.

Grave Stone A

The Grave Stone A[11] 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. Spoings 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[edit]

Grave Stones A and B of the Space Junk Galaxy
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 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[edit]

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.

Phantom Boss Spider Zone[edit]

The title of this article is official, but it comes from development data such as an internal filename. If an acceptable public source is found, then the article should be moved to its appropriate title.

The Phantom Boss Spider Zone, with its shell over it, just before Mario breaks it in half.

The Phantom Boss Spider Zone[12] 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 Coins 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 inside the planet, stuck in a Sling Pod.

Yoshi Head Planet[edit]

The title of this article is official, but it comes from development data such as an internal filename. If an acceptable public source is found, then the article should be moved to its appropriate title.

The Yoshi's head planet in Space Junk Galaxy
The Yoshi Head Planet.

The Yoshi Head Planet[13] 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 Yoshi Egg planet from the Good Egg Galaxy. This planet is home to a number of Goombas. 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.
