Editing Space Junk Galaxy

The '''Space Junk Galaxy''' is a [[galaxy]] in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. Like its name implies, the Space Junk Galaxy contains lots of discarded space junk, including old rocket ships, floating debris, and various other objects and platforms. A {{wp|spiral galaxy}} can be seen in the background.

===Planet Rockets===

The Planet Rockets<ref>File name of the object (Partition 0/ObjectData/PlanetRocket.arc).</ref> are a disconnected pair of big, long, red-and-tan space ships floating around in space. One is encountered in the first mission of the galaxy, and the other in the third. They have two Crystals containing coins growing out of its portholes. On the one in the third mission, the end of the planet features a Sling Pod, along with a few [[Spoing]]s and a [[Life Mushroom]]. These planets resembles [[Hocotate Ship|Olimar and Louie's ship]] from ''[[pikipedia:Pikmin 2|Pikmin 2]]''.

The Blue Star Capsule Planets<ref>"''Mario must navigate a Pull Star path around this galaxy, including a carefully executed swing through '''Blue Star Capsule Planet'''.''" — [[Pull Star Path]] ''Super Mario Galaxy'' trading card info</ref><ref>File name of the object (Partition 0/ObjectData/BlueStarCupsulePlanet.arc). Note that "capsule" is misspelled.</ref> are three large, blue versions of the orb planets with [[Pull Star]]s inside of them. These planets act as large Pull Stars that Mario can walk on. The planets seem to amplify the power of the pull stars inside of them seen from the blue glow the planets emit. This means the player is able to grab onto any part of the planets with their cursor and be affected by the pull star. The third planet is a [[checkpoint]].

[[File:SMG Assembly Block Planet.png|200px|thumb|Mario on the main platform of the Assembly Block Planet.]]

The only static planet in the Assembly Block Planet<ref>File name of the object (Partition 0/ObjectData/AssemblyBlockPlanet.arc).</ref> is the platform on which Mario starts out on, which contains a [[checkpoint]]. This planet somewhat resembles the starting planet of the galaxy. The "Space Junk" in this area is made up of [[Assembly Block]]s. Here, Mario must move around to find that Assembly Blocks will help him by giving him a floor to walk on. There are five [[Silver Star]]s scattered about that, once collected, will combine to create a Power Star. The player however, must be very careful as to not fall off the Assembly Blocks and into a [[black hole]]. Later, a more stylized Assembly Block Area is used for a Purple Coin mission.

In the second mission, several airships appear. Members of the Toad Brigade are trapped on the airships. Mario must hit a lever on the first airship to open the bridge, leading to a Sling Star and the second airship. The second airship has a [[Green Shell]]. Mario must throw the Green Shell at the Treasure Chest to unlock a Launch Star. The third airship has green shells, which Mario should throw at a few enemies on the fourth airship to open the bridge to it. The fourth and final airship is purple and red, different than the other airships. It is also where Mario must fight [[Kamella]]. Mario will get a Power Star for defeating Kamella. The first and third airships are [[checkpoint]]s.

[[File:SMG Small Maze Planet.png|200px|thumb|The very shiny, treasure-filled Small Maze Planet.]]

The Small Maze Planet<ref>File name of the object (Partition 0/ObjectData/SmallMazePlanet.arc).</ref> is a planet that is encountered in the third mission shortly before the battle with [[Tarantox]], and marks a [[checkpoint]]. At first, [[Mario]] walks on top of it, which is practically a transparent crystal orb. Once he finds the passageway in, he can go under the crystal layer and explore underneath, where there are [[1-Up Mushroom]]s, [[coin]]s, [[Star Bit]]s, and [[Goomba]]s. There is a [[Launch Star]] in this planet, which will blast Mario out of its glassy surface, and take him to the Rock Planet. There is also a [[Hungry Luma]] on the surface of the planet, which will take Mario to the Yoshi Head Planet. In the first mission, the Launch Star path from the Lava Transparent Planets to the Rocket Planet goes around this planet.

The Grave Stone A<ref>File name of the object (Partition 0/ObjectData/GraveStoneA.arc).</ref> is a planet mostly made of gray stone. It has a sort of arch, as seen in the picture. This planet is an entrance to Tarantox's lair and marks a [[checkpoint]]. The pre-boss music begins when [[Mario]] lands on this planet, and the Grave Stone B planet is nearby. [[Spoing]]s also dwell here. To proceed, Mario must use the Sling Pod to launch the Toad to Grave Stone B, before launching himself also.

The Phantom Boss Spider Zone<ref>File name of the zone, PhantomBossSpiderZone.</ref> is exceptionally large and looks like a giant version of the top of a [[Sling Pod]]. In fact, Mario uses a Sling Pod to get to the planet, breaking its shell open and revealing a giant sticky spider web, where he fights Tarantox, who is frozen inside the Sling Pod Planet. Several [[Coin]]s are also stuck in the web, and can be freed using the [[Star Pointer]] to restore some of Mario's health during the battle. After defeating Tarantox, Mario will get a Power Star. There's also a green [[Toad (species)|Toad]] inside the planet, stuck in a Sling Pod.

*There appears to be unused data in the source code of the game for a [[Cosmic Mario]] race which was never added in the official release of ''Super Mario Galaxy'', being replaced with the Speedy Comet mission instead, likely due to the [[Pull Star]]s. However, if the data for the Speed Comet mission is replaced by Cosmic Comet data, the mission can be played like a regular Cosmic Mario race.<ref>Galaxy Hacker (April 25, 2015).
