A Star Barrier[1] is an object appearing in Super Mario Galaxy 2. Star Barriers appear as blockades on the World Map, preventing Starship Mario from moving beyond them. The only way to get past them is to have the required number of Power Stars, which is different for every Star Barrier. Once the Power Star requirements are met, the Star Barrier starts to shine. When Starship Mario goes over it in this state, the Star Barrier permanently flattens to the same size as the other spots on the World Map, and the Star Barrier reveals all of the paths connected to it. The Star Barriers and their requirements are as follows:
| Location | Stars Required | Unlocks |
|---|---|---|
| World 1 | 3 | Spin-Dig Galaxy and the Flip-Swap Galaxy Hungry Luma |
| 7 | Bowser Jr.'s Fiery Flotilla | |
| World 2 | 16 | Bowser's Lava Lair |
| World 3 | 28 | Bowser Jr.'s Fearsome Fleet |
| World 4 | 40 | Bowser's Gravity Gauntlet |
| World 5 | 55 | Bowser Jr.'s Boom Bunker |
| World 6 | 60 | Throwback Galaxy |
| 65 | Battle Belt Galaxy | |
| 70 | Bowser's Galaxy Generator | |
| World S | 75 | Rolling Coaster Galaxy |
| 80 | Twisty Trials Galaxy | |
| 90 | Stone Cyclone Galaxy | |
| 100 | Boss Blitz Galaxy | |
| 110 | The Flip-Out Galaxy Hungry Luma |
