'''Space Storm Galaxy''' is a galaxy in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. It is located in World 5. The level revolves around mechanical objects. The galaxy has an abandoned rocketship-like object and a tower shaped like a [[Topman]] similar to [[Buoy Base Galaxy]]. Switches that slow down time first appear here. [[Bob-omb]]s, [[Spiky Topman|Spiky Topmen]], and [[Topman|Topmen]] are common enemies in the galaxy. The main obstacle in this galaxy is electricity, with [[Amp]]s and electric fences all around the area. There is also a new enemy called the [[Electricity Shooter]], which shoots electrical currents that home in on [[Mario]].

Those two planets are large, glass spheres with a [[Pull Star]]s in each of them. A couple of [[Big Amp|Zap Ball]]s surround the second planet. Five Pull Stars and a [[Launch Star]] that they orbit in a pentagon formation are found at the top of the planet. During the second mission, the Pull Stars and Zap Balls are moving fast, and the Pull Star leading to the Blue Star Capsule Planet is missing, so [[Mario]] will have to use the Pull star inside it to get to the latter planetoid. A [[blue switch (Super Mario Galaxy)|blue switch]] will be found on the second Pull Star planet to slow them down. There is also a [[1-Up Mushroom]] behind the first one.

This cylindrical planet looks like a rocket ship because of the several "wings" it has on the sides. It is visited only in the first mission after Mario leaves the Starting Planet, and its gravity is toroidal, meaning he cannot fall off. There are a lot of electric fences on the planet; most are stationary, but a few of them encircle the planet. There are orange platforms that move around the planet as well. The [[Comet Medal]] is located on here and is dangerously close to an electric fence. [[Mario]] should perform a [[Long Jump]] to get it. The [[Launch Star]] here will take the player to the Bob-omb Planet.

This planet is a metallic tower shaped slightly like a [[Topman]]. The highest part of the tower is shaped exactly like the [[Buoy Base Galaxy#Buoy Base|tower]] from the [[Buoy Base Galaxy]], but with platforms that spin much more rapidly. Enemies here include different types of Topmen, [[Amp]]s and [[Thwomp]]s. At the bottom of the planet, different sections of the floor spin very rapidly in opposing directions. [[Water Shooter]]s are located at the bottom as well and shoot water at a rapid pace. There are also a lot of [[Time Switch]]es here that will slow down the enemies and obstacles so they can proceed to the top with ease. The player will need to kill two Spiky Topmen at the top. This will make a Spring Topman appear which the player can use to get the [[Power Star]].

This is a metallic tower that slightly resembles an upside-down top. It is almost identical to the [[Buoy Base Galaxy#Buoy Base|Buoy Base]] fortress from the [[Buoy Base Galaxy]], featuring a very similar appearance and many of the same obstacles and enemies, some of which now move very rapidly. Enemies here include different types of Topmen, [[Amp]]s and [[Thwomp]]s. At the bottom of the planet, different sections of the floor spin very rapidly in opposing directions. [[Water Shooter]]s are located at the bottom as well and shoot water at a rapid pace. A pool of lava surrounds about a half of the tower. There are also a lot of blue switches here that will slow down the enemies and obstacles so they can proceed to the top with ease. The player will need to kill two Spiky Topmen at the top. This will make a [[Spring Topman]] appear which the player can use to get the [[Power Star]]. If Mario kills the Spring Topman, a replacement will be summoned.

|mission1=[[Follow Me, Bob-omb]]
The player will start out on two spherical orbs with Pull Stars. They will need to use these Pull Stars, along with five rotating Pull Stars above the second planet to reach the [[Launch Star]] that will take them to the Abandoned Rocketship Planet. When the player lands here, they will need to make their way to the Launch Star at the end while avoiding the [[Amp]]s and electric fences. When the player uses the Launch Star, they will be taken to the Bob-omb Planet. On this planet, the player must lure a Bob-omb below them to blow up a glass cage. When the enemy explodes, the [[Launch Star]] inside the planet can be accessible. After the player uses the Launch Star to land on the Topman Planet, they must make their way to the top of the planet. From there, the player will need to traverse the Electric Field Area while avoiding the electric fences, [[Amp]]s, and [[Electricity Shooter]]s. When the player reaches the end, they can grab the Power Star located behind a moving electric fence.

Upon entering the galaxy for the second time, the player will notice a [[! Switch]] on one of the first two planets and will also notice that the Amps are move rather erratically. The player should pound the switch (although it may not be necessary), to slow down time, causing the Amps to slow down as well. The player must use the [[Launch Star]] to get to the Topman Tower this time. Upon arriving, they should notice another ! Switch and Water Shooters shooting bubbles at a breakneck pace. The player must slow down time and hit the levers to open the gates. After they reach the [[Midway Flag]], the player will need to slow down time to make the Thwomps and moving platforms move at a sluggish pace. When the player makes it to the top, they have to defeat two [[Spiky Topman|Spiky Topmen]] to make a [[Spring Topman]] appear. The player must use it to reach the [[Power Star]].

The player must replay the [[To the Top of Topman's Tower]] mission. This Green Star is found on the Topman's Tower. To get it, the player must make their way to the part of the tower with the [[Thwomp]]s. From there, they should notice a small green and black path surrounded by red borders. The player must go down this path to find the Green Star. An alternate way to get this star is if the player performs a backward somersault and simply Wall Jumps off the first gate, followed by a spin to land back onto the top of the gate platform.

The player will do redo the [[#Follow Me, Bob-omb|Follow Me, Bob-omb]] mission. They should make their way to the [[#Topman Planet|Topman Planet]]. The player must located the [[Gearmo]] located on the top left side of the planet and he'll tell him that he is looking for a [[Spiky Topman]]. The player must then lure a Spiky Topman to the Gearmo. However, the player must be wary that the [[Bob-omb]]s and [[Topman|Topmen]] do not push him into a [[Black Hole]]. The player must also be careful that the Topmen does not kill itself by touching an electric fence. Once the player brings the Gearmo the Topman, they will be rewarded with a [[Power Star]].

Space Storm Galaxy is a galaxy in the game Super Mario Galaxy 2. It is located in World 5. The level revolves around mechanical objects and is somewhat based off the Dreadnought Galaxy and the Buoy Base Galaxy from Super Mario Galaxy. The galaxy has an abandoned rocketship-like object and a tower shaped like a Topman similar to Buoy Base Galaxy. Switches that slow down time first appear here. Bob-ombs, Spiky Topmen, and Topmen are common enemies in the galaxy, and this is also the only galaxy in the game where Topmen appear. Notably, their leader, Topmaniac, is absent. The main obstacle in this galaxy is electricity, with Amps and electric fences all around the area. There is also a new enemy called the Zap Nozzle, which shoots electrical currents that home in on Mario.

There are no Prankster Comets in the galaxy until the player unlocks the Green Stars.

Planets/Areas[edit]

Starting Planets[edit]

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

Mario on one of the Starting Planets.

Those two planets are large, glass spheres with a Pull Stars in each of them. A couple of Zap Balls surround the second planet. Five Pull Stars and a Launch Star that they orbit in a pentagon formation are found at the top of the planet. During the second mission, the Pull Stars and Zap Balls are moving fast, and the Pull Star leading to the Blue Star Capsule Planet is missing, so Mario will have to use the Pull star inside it to get to the latter planetoid. A blue switch will be found on the second Pull Star planet to slow them down. There is also a 1-Up Mushroom behind the first one.

Abandoned Rocket Ship Planet[edit]

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

This cylindrical planet looks like a rocket ship because of the several "wings" it has on the sides. It is visited only in the first mission after Mario leaves the Starting Planet, and its gravity is toroidal, meaning he cannot fall off. There are a lot of electric fences on the planet; most are stationary, but a few of them encircle the planet. There are orange platforms that move around the planet as well. The Comet Medal is located on here and is dangerously close to an electric fence. Mario should perform a Long Jump to get it. The Launch Star here will take the player to the Bob-omb Planet.

Bob-omb Planet[edit]

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

This planet is shaped like a spool of thread. The middle of the planet is glass and the player can see through it. Electric fences are the main hazards on the planet. Inside the planet is a machine that spawns Bob-ombs. The player must lure the Bob-omb to the cage blocking the entrance, blowing it up. A Life Mushroom can be found here. There is a Tip Network in the outer part of the planet. The Launch Star inside the planet will take the player to the Topman Planet. Two Black Holes are found on either side of the planet but they don't seem to serve a purpose, as the spots they inhabit at the ends of the planet are blocked off by walls that Mario cannot scale, even with his Wall Jump.

Topman Planet[edit]

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

At the Topman Planet.

This is a long, metallic grey planet with several holes surrounded by electric fences, with the beginning marking a Checkpoint. There is a Bob-omb spawner on here which can be used to summon Bob-ombs to destroy the numerous cages. Regular and Spiky Topmen continuously spawn on this planet. The Electric Field Area is located next to this planet. During the C'mere Topman mission, a silver Gearmo will appear, asking Mario to bring him a Spiky Topman; if the plumber is successful, the Gearmo will reward him with a Power Star.

Electric Field Area[edit]

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

Mario, in the dangerous Electric Field Area.

This area is located directly after the Topman Planet. It is located high above the Bob-omb Planet. This area is full of Zap Balls and Zap Nozzles. The player must navigate through the planet by the use of Pull Stars. At the end of the planet is an electric fence guarding a Power Star. If Mario is hit by any of the electricity then he will fall. As Mario traverses this area, the player can see the Glass Spool Planet below.

Topman's Tower[edit]

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

This is a metallic tower that slightly resembles an upside-down top. It is almost identical to the Buoy Base fortress from the Buoy Base Galaxy, featuring a very similar appearance and many of the same obstacles and enemies, some of which now move very rapidly. Enemies here include different types of Topmen, Amps and Thwomps. At the bottom of the planet, different sections of the floor spin very rapidly in opposing directions. Water Shooters are located at the bottom as well and shoot water at a rapid pace. A pool of lava surrounds about a half of the tower. There are also a lot of blue switches here that will slow down the enemies and obstacles so they can proceed to the top with ease. The player will need to kill two Spiky Topmen at the top. This will make a Spring Topman appear which the player can use to get the Power Star. If Mario kills the Spring Topman, a replacement will be summoned.
