Galaxy

A galaxy is an enormous system consisting of gases, stars, planets, and comets. Mario visits many galaxies in his adventures through Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2. There are currently a total of 91 different galaxies between the two games.

The galaxy named Grand Finale Galaxy is home to Mario's planet (Mushroom World), while the Milky Way Galaxy is home to Earth. The galaxies in Super Mario Galaxy are notably much smaller than real galaxies, often being comprised of nothing more than a few small planetoids, most of which are in all different shapes and sizes.

Galaxies are each categorized under different Domes which show Mario up to five galaxies and then gives him the option to fly to those galaxies. Each dome also has one Hungry Luma galaxy which can only be accessed by feeding a Hungry Luma the certain amount of star bits that it requires to transform into a galaxy.

Many galaxies have black holes, in which if Mario falls over the edge, he will be sucked into the black hole.

Trivia

 * In both Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2, galaxies are commonly represented by three-dimensional revolving icons which consist of either one planet found in the galaxy or multiple planets in the galaxy (in Super Mario Galaxy, only 29 of the 42 total galaxies in the game have revolving icons, as the other 13 remaining galaxies are accessed outside of one of the six main domes), in Super Mario Galaxy 2 every Galaxy has an Icon.
 * Note that in Super Mario Galaxy, every object found on the revolving galaxy icons remains stationary. In Super Mario Galaxy 2, however, almost every galaxy icon in the game has something moving on it.
