The '''Flipswitch Galaxy''' is the smallest [[galaxy]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', and contains only one mission. The galaxy is composed of 18 [[Flipswitch Panel]]s which [[Mario]] (or [[Luigi]]) must step on. After all of them have been turned yellow, a [[Power Star]] appears. The background is a scene from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', as shown in the pictures. They periodically switch between variations of [[World 2-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 2-1]] and [[World 1-2 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-2]]. The level features a [[Spring Vault]] that produces circular lasers which can damage Mario. Some Flipswitch Panels are also covered with moving [[Spike Trap]]s that can hurt Mario. The music used for this galaxy is an arrangement of the [[Underground Theme|underground theme]] from ''Super Mario Bros.'' This music returns in later games, such as ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''.

Even though the level sounds simple, a [[Sentry Beam]] spawns out circle shaped lasers which can damage Mario. Some Flipswitch Panels are also covered with moving spiked platforms that can hurt Mario.


The galaxy can only be unlocked if the player has at least seven Power Stars.

The Starting Planet is the largest planet in the Flipswitch Galaxy and the only accessible one. It is covered in [[Flipswitch Panel]]s (18 of them exactly) and several hazards such as spiked platforms and electrical barriers. The platforms and electrical barriers move around the planet creating hazards for Mario to dodge as he goes through them.

The only other resident of the planet is a Spring Vault that releases circular shockwaves as Mario goes through the planet. Mario must flip all the Flipswitch Panels from blue to yellow and then, when they are all flipped, they will turn green. Once the Flipswitch Panels are green the laser-shooting Spring Vault will turn into a [[Trampoline]] and release a Power Star for Mario to get. The electric barriers and spiked platforms will also be deactivated.

===Block Planets===
Before Mario lands on the Starting Planet, he flies past 49 [[Brick Block]]s floating in space, which cannot be reached other than through hacking. Each of these blocks contains one [[coin]].<ref>The Beaverhouse (January 31, 2010).

These breakable block planets are seen when Mario is flying to the galaxy and cannot be reached (except through hacking). These aren't really planets but rather [[Brick Block]]s floating in space. Each of these blocks contain one [[coin]].<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DpCGD0HYrFg</ref>
