The Dreadnought Galaxy is a galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy. It is a very mechanical and technical battle station. Topmaniac is refought here. The Dreadnought Galaxy uses similar elements from the Battlerock Galaxy, but is somewhat more difficult than it. To unlock this galaxy, get 48 Power Stars. The galaxy is based in and around a massive ship named "The Dreadnought".
Planets/Areas[]
Beam Planet[]
This planet is shaped like an hourglass, and is full of electric beams and other electrical hazards that spin around. At the end is a Launch Star that Mario must get to by jumping on a spring.
Dreadnought Main Core[]
The entrance of this planet has three Astro Goombas and a Warp Pipe. Inside this planet, is a side-scrolling area with hazards such as Amps, Cannons/Cannonballs, and moving walls. At the end is another Warp Pipe. Mario can change the gravity by Spinning next to a Gravity Arrow .
Tower[]
This planet is part of the main planet consists of many cylinders that fall when Mario gets to a higher level. On the top parts are a pair of moving walls and a Launch Star.
Aqua Planet[]
This planet is medium-sized with a Bill Blaster and several Astro Goombas. There is a vault that must be broken to flood the planet. A lot of platforms with lasers that move across the water are here as well as some Robot Turtles. Stand on the Turtles and they will move. Above the platform with the lasers, is a small, cubical planet. Some metallic structures are above the water, and one of them contains a Power Star.
Chain Chomp Planet[]
The Chain Chomp Planet has three parts. In the first part is a screw that moves forward or backwards depending on how much weight it has on it. Beneath is a green platform with Bob-ombs. The second part has several Flipswitches which Mario must press while avoiding the Chomp Pups that continuosly fall from the dog shacks. If Mario presses them all, Mario can get to the third part. In this part, are two screws and two Octopuses that must be defeated for the Launch Star to appear.
Platform Path[]
This is a section on the side of the Dreadnought Main Core. It contains many platforms of different sizes that travel along a path. There are obstacles such as cannons and electric currents. At the end, after some upsided-down platforms is a Power Star.
UFO Planet[]
This planet is a metal planet shaped like a UFO. In the upper part is a Spring Topman (a Green Topman) and in the lower part is a Warp Pipe leading to the Garbage Dump.
Garbage Dump[]
The Garbage Planet is shaped like half of a sphere. It is inhabited by a Gearmo that cleans the garbage, however this time he cannot clean all of the garbage. Mario must use the Bob-ombs on this planet that Mario can use to blow up the garbage. If he succeeds, he earns a Power Star from the Gearmo.
Sphere Planet[]
This planet has several cylindrical structures sticking out. The Sphere Planet is shaped like a sphere. Mario must knock two Spiky Topmen into an electrical barrier to free a trapped Luma. Then the Luma will transform into the Cube Planet leaving behind a Sling Star.
Cube Planet[]
This planet is a small planet that is, of course, a cube. There is a Ground Pound Switch that makes five, blue Star Chips appear when Ground Pounded. A Spring Topman can be found on this planet, as well as a Spiky Topman during "Topman Tribe Speed Run". When all Star Chips are collected, Pull Stars will appear.
Artillery Walls[]
Hense the name, these are two walls that face each other located in the Dreadnought Main Core. There are cannons that shoot Cannonballs, as well as Mines. Pull Stars are in the middle, which Mario must use to climb up the walls while avoiding the Cannonballs.
Landing Platform[]
This planet is a big, flat planet shaped like a blue runway for planes. Several obstacles here shoot electric waves at Mario. Near the end is a Launch Star. A Koopa Troopa is on this planet, and Mario can use its shell to break open the treasure chests on this planet.
Topmen Planet[]
Like the UFO Planet, this planet is shaped like a UFO. Lots of Spiky Topmen are on it, and like the Topman Planet of the Battlerock Galaxy, many electric barriers try to block Mario's path. At the top is Topmaniac, who is waiting to be fought again.
Missions[]
Infiltrating the Dreadnought[]
Mario or Luigi must to explore the Beam Planet before he gets into the Dreadnought Main Core. Then he must go through some sidescrolling areas until he reaches the Aqua Planet. Here, Mario must break a cage by luring a Bullet Bill into it (When you near the cage, go behind it so that the Bullet Bill collides with the cage), just like you do in the Battlerock Galaxy. The planet will flood. This triggers laser platforms, which Mario must jump across for the Power Star.

Dreadnought's Colossal Cannons[]
Mario starts off on a U-shaped platform with electric borders. Jumping down to the platform below, Mario can get some Star Bits and use a Bob-omb to break a cage with a 1up Mushroom in it. To get further, Mario must run left on the giant screw until he's close enough to jump to the next platform. Here, Mario must avoid the Chomp Pups while he turns all Flipswitches yellow. After this, two more screws must be traversed. However, Mario cannot fall off like the previous screw, because a Black Hole is beneath the area. This task is slightly harder because two Octopuses will shoot Fireballs and Coconuts at Mario. If timed correctly, they can be defeated when they first appear. Once Mario is on the platform where the Octopuses were, he can pick up the Coins they have left behind. If Mario looks up, he can find Star Bits in the shape of a star. A Launch Star is up ahead. However, a Bob-omb sprouts from the ground, making getting to the Star and the blocks near it difficult and time wasting. Mario can use his Spin move to throw away the Bob-omb where he can have peace on his way to the Launch Star. You can get the Star Bits when being shot from the Launch Star using the Star Cursor. Mario will soon land on a small platform. Mario must dodge Cannonballs, electric fences, and Goombas, while jumping from different platforms using gravity. Eventually, Mario will end up on a platform with a Thwomp that he must get past, which leads to more platforms. At the end of the platforms, Mario must avoid shockwaves a Sentry Beam is making. When close enough, he can jump on the Sentry Beam and collect the Power Star.
