==Story==
[[File:SMG Prolog1.png|thumb|200px|right|ToadCastle TownGardens, asthe itstarting appears in this game.area]]
Every hundred years, a comet passes over the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] and causes magical stars and stardust to fall to the planet below. This century, [[Star Bit]]s rain down from the sky and form [[Grand Star|a giant Power Star]]. The [[Toad Brigade]] finds it and delivers it to the castle. [[Baby Luma]] has also fallen, and [[Princess Peach]] decides to give him to Mario. She sends a letter to [[Mario]], inviting him to [[Princess Peach's Castle|her castle]] to join in the festivities and receive him as a gift. With invitation in hand, Mario runs to the [[Castle Gardens]]. As the citizens of the kingdom are celebrating the centennial event, [[Bowser]] suddenly attacks the [[Toad (species)|Toads]] with his [[airship]]s and freezes them in [[Item Crystal|crystals]]. He "invites" Peach to the creation of his brand new galaxy, and when Peach (holding Luma tight) doesn't respond, he uses a UFO to carry the castle to the center of the universe. Before Mario can reach Peach, [[Kamek]] casts a spell at him, sending him into a small planetoid and knocking him out.
 
Line 24 ⟶ 31:
Here, he defeats Bowser in his brand new galaxy, retrieves the last Grand Star, and rescues Princess Peach as she's falling from [[Bowser Jr.]]'s airship. The two share a carefree moment in the skies, but their reunion is cut short when the Sun of Bowser's near-complete galaxy undergoes a supernova and becomes a supermassive [[Black Hole]]. As Mario and Peach are seen walking together and holding hands, the bridge leading to the observatory then breaks apart, separating them both. After that, everything in the universe begins to be pulled into it. The Lumas from the Comet Observatory, including the Luma who had faithfully accompanied Mario through his journey, throw themselves into the Black Hole in order to neutralize it. The Lumas attack the Black Hole's singularity, and it soon disintegrates in a massive explosion. Mario appears in front of Rosalina, who had supposedly saved him from the cataclysm. She tells him that this is not the end, but a new beginning for the [[Mushroom Universe|universe]], and that the universe is an endless cycle, one that never repeats itself in exactly the same way.
 
[[File:endingsceneEndingscene.PNG|thumb|right|Various characters celebrating after the [[Mushroom Universe|universe]]'s recreation.]]
Mario later awakens in the Mushroom Kingdom near Peach's Castle. He sees everyone he's met throughout his adventure (friend and foe alike) celebrating the Star Festival, while Bowser and Peach lie next to him confused. When he looks in the air, he notices the reconstructed galaxy, and exclaims ''"Welcome! Welcome new galaxy!"'' as the camera zooms out into space, revealing that the universe has been reconstituted. If the player continues, Mario will be at the point immediately prior to the final level, except [[Comet#Purple_Comet|Purple CometsComet]]s will become available. Rosalina also states that if Mario collects all 120 Power Stars, he can travel to a new world, which turns out to be his [[Mushroom World|homeland]]. If Mario collects 120 stars, a special cut scene plays after the credits. Rosalina and a group of Lumas appear on the planet Mario started on at the beginning of the game. Rosalina says ''"I will watch over you from beyond the stars."'' and flies off to the Comet Observatory. The Baby Luma is shown to be alive as if nothing happened, now residing on the small Gate planet, inside a derelict [[Starshroom]] that is covered in moss. (This also could be a possibility of where the Luma that started the second game fell from when it landed near Mario in the intro level of Super Mario Galaxy 2) In addition, "Super [[Luigi]] Galaxy" mode is unlocked, and collecting 120 Power Stars in Luigi's scenario will open a bonus episode containing the last Power Star in which the [[Star Festival]] appears to resume at the [[Grand Finale Galaxy]], with [[Penguin]]s, [[Gearmo]]s, [[Star Bunny|Star Bunnies]], and [[Bee]]s (along with the local Toads) all enjoying the festivities. The player can obtain a picture of Mario and Peach at [[Good Egg Galaxy]], and a picture of Luigi and Rosalina in front of the castle's moat.

[[Power Star]]s make a comeback, last being seen in ''Super Mario 64 DS''. The main goal of the game is to collect a minimum of sixty stars and defeat Bowser. Similar to [[Princess Peach's Castle]] in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and [[Delfino Plaza]] in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', the [[Comet Observatory]] acts as the game's hub area. There, Mario can access the galaxies from [[dome]]s. New areas in the Comet Observatory become accessible as Mario gains Power Stars and [[Grand Star]]s. A minimum number of Power Stars is required to have enough power to go to each multi-star galaxy, single non-Grand Star galaxies with a ? Block icon when locked are bonuses for finishing certain star missions. The game has a level intro for each star, as in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''.
