The '''Beacon''' is the large [[star|star-like]] reactor that powers the [[Comet Observatory]], including the space station's propulsion systems, life support, and its [[Dome]]s.  The Beacon begins as a small, dim star, but as [[Mario]] collects more [[Grand Star]]s, the star becomes larger and brighter, allowing access to more Domes. The Lumas need the beacon to survive. Through the course of the game, it changes colors from red to yellow, then to green, and then to a greenish-blue, then to blue and finally turquoise. There is also an invisible wall that prevents the player from touching the Beacon.
