The Observatory is a room in Area Three of Luigi's Mansion.

After exiting the Astral Hall, Luigi enters the Observatory. The telescope is the only real object in the Observatory, apart from a small dresser with a globe on top near the door. When he looks through telescope and sees the Moon, the walls fade away, allowing Luigi to enter a small balcony. Luigi sucks up a Shining Ghost and shoots it at the Moon, blowing it up in the process. After that, a winding path of light appears, which leads to a halved moon where Mario's Star rests.

Trivia

  • By using any Element, Luigi can see that "space" does not extend forever. By shooting an Elemental Blast at the far wall, the blast will eventually hit the back wall.
  • When Luigi enters the "space" area, his icon on the Game Boy Horror's map will move beyond the mansion's walls, eventually becoming only visible when the map is turned.
  • Although Luigi "destroys" the moon, it is clearly visible from the Balcony. The Japanese name, "Room of Illusion", suggests that the moon in this room is fake and that Luigi did not really destroy it. This name was lost in translation as the name "Observatory" implies the moon is real.
