'''Orbiting Observatory''' is the extra world of ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars]]'', succeeding [[Twilight Valley]]. It contains two sets of levels, E1 and E2, also referred to as '''Extra Levels'''<ref>[[Media:ExtraLevels.jpg|Congratulatory message after completing all levels of Orbiting Observatory in the Nintendo 3DS version]]</ref><ref>[[Media:ExtraLevelsWiiU.jpg|Congratulatory message after completing the main game in the Wii U version]]</ref>. The Orbiting Observatory is themed around cosmos and introduces the [[Magnet Rod|Magnet]] mechanic, which consists of magnetic platforms that allow the Minis to walk all around them. In some levels, there are [[Magnet Switch]]es that can be tapped with the stylus to enable or disable Magnets. Magnets are given an emphasis in World E1, with both Worlds E1 and E2 being designed to represent a recap for all mechanics and enemies encountered in previous levels. With the second level of World E1, [[Mini Donkey Kong]]s make their first appearance in the game.

In the background, large planet models are seen floating in zero gravity, some of which are connected into {{wp|Binary system|binary systems}}. Behind them, there are numerous hexagonal windows with a view of the outer space. As indicated by its name, Orbiting Observatory appears to be an artificial satellite. The soundtrack of this world is closely similar to the soundtrack of [[Cosmic Adventure]] from ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!]]''
