Sand Spiral Galaxy
Template:Galaxybox The Sand Spiral Galaxy is a galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy. This galaxy is a large barrel with a rapid sand river. This galaxy has many Boos and Swoops.
This galaxy is unlocked when Mario complete the mission Faster Than a Speeding Penguin in the Sea Slide Galaxy and Luigi and the Haunted Mansion in the Ghostly Galaxy -- this is because that star is supposed to "introduce" the Boo Mushroom. Once Mario does so, a Hungry Luma will appear behind the Engine Room. Mario needs to feed the Hungry Luma, and the way to the Sand Spiral Galaxy is revealed.
Planets/Areas
NOTE: Unless otherwise noted, all names are unofficial.
Wrecked Airship
This is just the front half of an airship that seemingly crashed into something or was blasted. Mario starts out here and continues to the sand planet. It is more likely that it was blasted by some sort of weapon due to the scattered debris floating nearby and the fact that the division where the two halves would meet is made up of jagged, protruding chunks of deck, wood, and some individual wooden beams that would support or make up the decks. On the airship there is a Magikoopa.
Sinking Sand Planet
This is a large pipe-like planet that is filled with sand. Mario must navigate through the obstacles and avoid falling into the sand by either using the Bee Mushroom or the Boo Mushroom.
Spiral Moon Planets
This is a small moon with a large spiraling planet spinning around it. Mario must cross this spiral planet while avoiding mines to reach the moon where the Power Star is.
If Mario gets across the entire Sand Planet as Bee Mario, he can fly to the moon. He will have to stop on the platforms once or twice while taking this shortcut.

Trivia
- If Boo Mario tries to fly up to the spiral area instead of taking the Sling Star, his abilities will disappear before he lands on the platform. This is due to it being outside; there is ambient light.
- Near the entrance, a Red Toad is seen near a Boo Mushroom. Interestingly, the only Red Toad in the Toad Brigade is Captain Toad, who is always seen with his headlamp and backpack on.
