Unlike proceeding games that feature worlds – like ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' (1988) and ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' (2006) – the galaxies within the worlds of ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' are not thematically unified. For example, [[World 3 (Super Mario Galaxy 2)|World 3]] contains galaxies themed around forests, snow, and haunted houses. While not all galaxies need to be completed, no numbered worlds can be skipped over to reach the end credits. | Unlike proceeding games that feature worlds – like ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' (1988) and ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' (2006) – the galaxies within the worlds of ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' are not thematically unified.

Each galaxy contains objectives called | Each galaxy contains objectives called missions. Completing a mission has [[Mario]] obtaining one of the galaxy's [[Power Star]]s. One mission correlates with one Power Star. The structure of missions is closely derived from the first ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' (2007). However, there are fewer dedicated missions in individual galaxies, with none having more than three. By contrast, the most robust galaxies in ''Super Mario Galaxy'' have as many as six missions. Some missions have one or more hidden [[Green Star]]s that begin to appear once the player has collected 120 normal Power Stars. Like regular Power Stars, collecting one is considered as the end of the mission. [[Grandmaster Galaxy]] is the only course in the game to lack any Green Stars. Combined, there are 242 collectible Stars in the game, the same number in its predecessor. | ||
Some galaxies can only be unlocked by feeding [[Hungry Luma]]s a requested number of [[Star Bit]]s. They appear on the world map and transport to the Starship Mario when touched. There is one in every world. Hungry Lumas appear within galaxies too, but these individuals eat coins instead of Star Bits. Feeding one the requested amount causes it to transform into a planet that contains a Secret Star. Secret Star missions are otherwise unlocked by completing certain criteria. Doing so causes non-playable characters to write letters to Mario requesting his help or to challenge him in specific galaxies he has already visited at least once. The most recurring writer is [[The Chimp]], a monkey from [[Fluffy Bluff Galaxy]] who considers Mario to be his rival. | Some galaxies can only be unlocked by feeding [[Hungry Luma]]s a requested number of [[Star Bit]]s.
