| | The '''Star Crystal''' is a semi-common item in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' that consists of big, blue [[Star Bit]]s with strange spiky white crystal structures in them. They are most commonly seen floating in space directly in the path of a [[Launch Star]]. When [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] fly through the path, they will smash right through the Giant Star Bit, releasing multiple separate Star Bits that will circle around them and can be collected with the [[Star Cursor]] until they land on the next planet. |

| '''Star Piece Clusters'''<ref>''Super Mario Galaxy'' / ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' internal filename (<tt>StarPieceCluster</tt>)</ref> are semi-common items that consist of big blue [[Star Bit]]s with spiky white crystal structures in them in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They appear more often in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' than in its predecessor. They are most commonly seen floating in space directly in the path of a [[Launch Star]]. When [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] flies through the path, he smashes right through the Star Piece Cluster, releasing multiple separate Star Bits that circle around him and can be collected with the [[Star Pointer]] until he lands on the next planet. | |

| In ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', '''Star Piece Cluster Rocks'''<ref>''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' internal filename (<tt>StarPieceClusterRock</tt>)</ref> can sometimes be found floating just above the ground, though this is extremely rare, as this happens only during [[A Stroll Down Rolling Lane|one mission]] in the [[Melty Monster Galaxy]]. In this mission, the Star Piece Cluster Rocks will be destroyed if they are hit by [[Rock Mario]] or Rock Luigi. For some reason, Star Piece Cluster Rocks produce only four Star Bits when broken. These clusters can also be broken by the [[Co-Star Luma]]'s spin. | | In ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', Star Crystals can sometimes be found floating just above the ground, though this is extremely rare, as this will only happen during one level in the [[Melty Monster Galaxy]]. In this level, the Star Crystals will be destroyed if they are hit by [[Rock Mario]] or [[Rock Luigi]]. For some reason, these Star Crystals will only produce four Star Bits when broken. These Star Crystal can also be broken by the [[Co-Star Luma]]. |

| It is also possible to break a Star Piece Cluster by using Mario or Luigi's [[spin|Star-Spin]]. To do this, he must go to the [[Cloudy Court Galaxy]], choose the [[Head in the Clouds|first mission]], grab a [[Cloud Flower]], and traverse through until he reaches the highest cymbal next to the Launch Star while having one carrying three clouds. At this point, there is a Star Piece Cluster in the Launch Star's path. The player must try to reach the Star Piece Cluster by creating clouds at the peak of their [[Backward Somersault|backward somersault]]s towards the Star Crystal. Even though the [[jump]]s may not be high enough, the last backward somersault can reach the Star Piece Cluster. At the peak of the last somersault, the player must star-spin at the Star Piece Cluster; the Star Piece Cluster breaks and Star Bits follow the player.
| | Three Star Crystals also appear on the [[Grand World Map]], one near the end of [[World 1 (Super Mario Galaxy 2)|World 1]] and two at the beginning of [[World 2 (Super Mario Galaxy 2)|World 2]]. The player can maneuver [[Starship Mario]] into these Star Crystals in order to break them and release the Star Bits inside. These Star Crystals appear to have a yellow spiky crystal inside them, and will release eight Star Bits when broken. |

| | ==Trivia== |
| | *In the Galaga Remix in Namco Museum Megamix, there are large floating objects in space that resemble Star Crystals. They award the player points. |
| | *Though they do appear quite frequently in both ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', Star Crystals are far more common in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' than in its predecessor. |
