Mario getting attracted by a Beam Star.
A Beam Star is an item in Super Mario Galaxy that gives Mario yet another power that he's never had before. It looks like a small, blue version of a Boost Star inside a blue bubble or orb. When the player touches one with the Star Cursor, it uses a blue aura to lift Mario off the ground, pulling him up toward it. Combining the power of these Beam Stars and using them together can help Mario reach astounding heights.
