'''Cosmic Mario''' is a character that appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. Its physical shape is identical to [[Mario]], while its outer appearance is blue with stars, resembling space. It also has a high-pitched voice. If Mario enters a [[galaxy]] when a [[Prankster Comet#Cosmic Comet|Cosmic Comet]] is orbiting a galaxy, Cosmic Mario appears at the beginning of the [[level]] and challenges the player to a race. The player must then race through numerous obstacles and reach the [[Power Star]] before Cosmic Mario does. If Cosmic Mario manages to reach the Power Star first, Mario will lose a life and must restart the race. Colliding with it during the race causes it to release [[Star Bit]]s.

At the start of a race, if the player holds {{button|wii|Stick}} up, then {{button|wii|Z}} when the timer hits "2," and then hits {{button|wii|A}} just as the race starts, Mario or [[Luigi]] will get an extra boost at the beginning of the race, shown by a yellow color appearing on Mario/Luigi, shrinking gradually as a marker of the end of this effect. This is similar to the [[Rocket Start]] from the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' games.

A similar entity based on Cosmic Mario appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' in the form of the [[Cosmic Clone]]s, which also share the same voice clips. Other similar entities are the [[Cosmic Spirit]] from ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' and [[Mummy-Me]] from ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]''.

'''Cosmic Luigi''' also appears, replacing Cosmic Mario when the player plays as Luigi. It is very similar to Cosmic Mario, with the only major difference being that it takes advantage of shortcuts more often and uses a large number of [[Long Jump]]s, making it faster and harder to beat than its counterpart.

In ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', despite not being in the game while the player plays as Luigi, Cosmic Clones behave very similarly, being slightly faster.
