Comet Observatory

The Comet Observatory is one of the many known areas from the recently released Wii videogame Super Mario Galaxy. It will act as the 'hub' area, similar to Peach's Castle from Super Mario 64.

It is found in the Gateway Galaxy and is where Princess Rosetta is found. Much like Peach's Castle in Super Mario 64, or Delfino Plaza in Super Mario Sunshine, certain parts of the observatory are unlocked as Mario aquires Grand Stars. When Mario gets all the Grand Stars he can head to the Center of the Universe.

There are many domes scattered throughout the observatory. The domes are used to access the galaxies. Galaxies are accessed by either feeding some Lumas, and getting more Power Stars. The known domes are the Terrace, the Fountain, the Kitchen, and the Garage. According to the Lumas the domes are used to view the cosmos.
