Flip-Out Galaxy - Green Star 1

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
This Star is much easier to get than Green Star 2. I saw the Star off the edge of the planet you land on. I wall-jumped between the red and blue ledges and land on top of them. (One of them should be covered, so you can walk on it once you're done jumping.) I walked to the 1-up up there and fell off the planet and missed the Star.

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
This Star is easy to get, but I had trouble with Major Burrows. I got a Life Shroom and took five hits from Major Burrows, but lost the Life Shroom to a red spiky plant. I launched to Bouldergeist's planet and bought another Life Shroom, which was a bad idea, because I saw a glow on the edge of the planet. I took a hit from a rock, and jumped off the planet to get. It's just off the edge, so don't jump too far. This is a Type 1, Type 2 Star.

Take 2- While I was wandering, I noticed that the sound disappears as I get closer to the windmill. I then look back to the first planet and see the Star over the dinosaur shrub. I go back to that planet and make clouds to reach the Star over the dinosaur's head. This is a Type 1, Type 3 Star.

Beat Block Galaxy - Green Star 2

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
I know we need to go towards the end of the galaxy, near the Silver Stars to get the next green Star. I got a 1-up and took a hit from an Octoomba. I tripped the midgate, got a Silver Star, and found the Star over the right purple safe block on the bottom level of the pyramid. I backflipped, then spun to get it. This is a Type 1 Star.
Green Star Get #40!
Star Get #160, Galaxy Complete!, 4782 Star Bits, 15 Lives
This was a great session. I got 20 more Green Stars!

Beat Block Galaxy - Green Star 1

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
Getting the Stars in Beat Block will be interesting, but thankfully none of them are in the Double Time mission. I hear a Star near a midgate in the cutscenes. I fell through due to a bad jump.
Take 2- I hit an Octoomba and reached the Star, which floats next to, but not over the safe purple blocks. I backflipped and spun from a safe corner to get it. This is a Type 2 Star.
Green Star Get #39!
Star Get #159, 4761 Star Bits, 2204 Coins, 14 Lives

Tall Trunk Galaxy - Green Star 3

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
When we land in the galaxy, we here the jungle music, so I'm looking for the Star somewhere in the slide mission. We talk to the Whittles, who question Luigi's bravery. I launch to the midgate, and soon figure out that the Star is somewhere on the slide. Great. I start sliding and find the Star near the end of the slide with the red Wigglers and the red spiky plants. I got a 1-up, but missed the Star and fell off. This could take a while, but at least I know where the Star is.
Take 2- I got 1-up, but took a hit from a Wiggler and a Spiny, missed the Star, and fell off.
Take 3- See Take 2.
Take 4- I got 1-up and fell off.
Take 5- I got a 1-up, hit a plant, and fell off.
Take 6- I got a 1-up and the Star. Timing your jump to the Star is crucial. This is a Type 1 Star.
Green Star Get #38!

Tall Trunk Galaxy - Green Star 2

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
We launch to the midgate of the cylindrical planet, where we'll find the next Star. I hear the Star and find it above the green pipe. I get 2-up and go around the planet so I'm above the area where the Star is. I go off the edge with Yoshi, fall, then jump off Yoshi and spin to get the Star. This took a few tries. This is a Type 3 Star.
Green Star Get #37!
Star Get #157, 4722 Star Bits, 13 Lives

Tall Trunk Galaxy - Green Star 1

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
This is a big, multi-leveled galaxy, so looking for Stars should be interesting. I found a Star above the branch with the Life Shroom. I wall-jumped off of the trunk after jumping off Yoshi to get it. This is a Type 1 Star.
Green Star Get #36!
Star Get #156, 2178 Coins, 11 Lives

Bowser's Lava Lair - Green Star 2

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
I once again fell in the lava. I got the Life Shroom afterwards, and tripped the midgate. I hit the electric fence and tripped the 2nd midgate. I broke the seal on the door with the meteorite and progress to the next area. There are skulls called Mattermouths eating the floor and I hear the Star under the floor. I fell through to get it. This is a Type 1, Type 2 Star.
Green Star Get #35!
Star Get #155, Galaxy Complete!, 4716 Star Bits, 2177 Coins, 11 Lives

Bowser's Lava Lair - Green Star 1

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
Searching for green Stars in lava galaxies is not fun. I died in the lava trying to get a Life Shroom.
Take 2- I took a hit from a fireball and successfully got the Life Shroom. I tripped the midgate after launching and hit an electric fence. I fell in the lava twice and got a 1-up from the ? Coin coins. I took hits from a firebar and a Dry Bones, and see the Star near another Dry Bones and the Whomps. I hit the electric fence and see the Star's shine from behind a rock in the lava. I took 3 hits from a Dry Bones and lost the Life Shroom. I long jumped to the Star from where the Dry Bones was. This is a Type 1, Type 2 Star.

Honeybloom Galaxy - Green Star 2

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!

Time to find another Star. I got the Bee Suit and tripped the midgate. I got a 1-up from the ? Coin coins, tripped the next midgate and fell in a black hole.

Take 2- I hear a Star past the poles. I got it by flying to the left off the ledge with the Star Bits. This is a Type 1 Star.
Green Star Get #33!

Honeybloom Galaxy - Green Star 1

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
It should be interesting to look for a Star in a 2D galaxy. I took a hit from a Goomba and got the Bee Suit. I reach the midgate, and hear a Star near the grapes. I found the Star above a grape to the left of the 2nd midgate and flew to get it. This is a Type 1 Star.
Green Star Get #32!
Star Get #152, 4582 Star Bits, 2153 Coins, 11 Lives

Wild Glide Galaxy - Green Star 2

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
We have to comb this galaxy for green Stars with Fluzzard. This should be interesting. The music is nice, but makes hearing Stars a little challenging. I went through nearly the entire galaxy before I found a Star. It's on one of the rocks to the right, in front of the goal. I missed the Star and the goal.
Take 2- I missed the Star, but reached the goal.
Take 3- I got a 1-up and missed the Star, but reached the goal.
Take 4- This time, I steered into the Star. This is a Type 1 Star.

Cosmic Cove Galaxy - Green Star 2

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
Once again, I missed a Star. It's very close to Green Star 3, so their chimes overlap, sounding like one. It took me 4 tries to get it, one of which I returned to the map, because I passed it. Near the moving bomb, at the right edge of the water area, is a block. We can't stand on the block and long jump to the Star, but we can leave the water, wall jump off the block, and get the Star, right in front of the black hole. This is a Star of all Types.
Green Star Get #30!
Star Get #150, Galaxy Complete!, 4501 Star Bits, 2146 Coins, 11 Lives

Cosmic Cove Galaxy - Green Star 3

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
We land back in the galaxy in the mission where we must save the Luma in the cage. We land in the galaxy and hear a Star. I look all over the beach, but it turns out it's the Luma making the noise. After being frozen by an ice demon, I go into the green pipe and trip the midgate. After taking 3 hits from an eel, I determine that the antfarm level is free of green Stars. We reach the end green pipe and trip the midgate. I hear the Star. I take a hit from a bomb and get a 1-up. I get a glimpse of the Star near the key. We long jump to the left of where we get the key, in front of the black hole, to get the Star. This is a Star of all Types.
Green Star Get #29!
Star Get #149, 4476 Star Bits, 2144 Coins, 13 Lives

Cosmic Cove Galaxy - Green Star 1

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
We return to the tranquility of Cosmic Cove. In the cutscene, we see a Star next to the platform near the twin falls. We go to the top of the tower and freeze the water. We wall jump up the falls and jump over the fence and spin to get the Star. This is a Type 3 Star.
Green Star Get #28!
Star Get #148, 4438 Star Bits, 2111 Coins, 12 Lives

Hightail Falls Galaxy - Green Star 3

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
This Star appears near the end of the galaxy. I took a hit from a Paragoomba, tripped the midgate, and fell off.
Take 2- I tripped the next midgate and fell off, but ditched Yoshi to save myself. Near the last wall are some swing flowers. This took me several tries, but if you jump from the highest, farthest on (on the right), and hover, then ditch Yoshi, you can get the Star. This is a Type 1, Type 3 Star.
Green Star Get #27!
Star Get #147, Galaxy Complete!, 4430 Star Bits, 2108 Coins, 12 Lives

Hightail Falls Galaxy - Green Star 2

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
This Star is closer to the Power Star. After tripping 2 midgates, we find the Star on the 2nd vertical wall we must climb. It's just off the edge, but we over shot it and fell off.
Take 2- This time I got the Star. I nearly fell off twice, but saved myself by ditching Yoshi and waiting for him to reappear in a nest. We found a way to stop on the purple block by hovering, and use it as a platform, then jump off it and hover to the Star. This is a Star of all Types.
Green Star Get #26!
Star Get #146, 4389 Star Bits, 2096 Coins, 12 Lives

Hightail Falls Galaxy - Green Star 1

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
We hear the Star very early on near the vertical wall. But it's not near the Launch Star, so we have to climb higher. This isn't easy: it requires precise steering to run up the left side of the wall without running into anything. I saved myself several times, but ultimately ran off the wall.
Take 2- I saved myself by hovering many times, but eventually fell off.
Take 3- See Take 2.
Take 4- After much trial and a 100 Star Bit 1-up, I ran up the wall. On top is a 1-up as well as Penguru. He says that skill has brought us very far. There is quite a view and it's clear how important every coin truly is. The top of the wall is very spacious and does have a great view. We get the Star, which is a Type 1, Type 3 Star.

Boulder Bowl Galaxy - Green Star 2

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
This one is easy to miss, because it's close to Green Star 1 and it's easy to overlook. The Star is on the other side of the first ramp. After knocking down the bridge, walk up and off the ramp onto the Star. This is a Type 1, Type 2 Star.
Green Star Get #24!
Star Get #144, Galaxy Complete!, 4231 Star Bits, 2076 Coins, 14 Lives

Boulder Bowl Galaxy - Green Star 3

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
After knocking down the bridge and rolling to the midgate, we hear the Star amidst the sounds of the Octoombas. I take hits from both a pink and a green Octoomba. The Star is on the other side of the fence near the Rock Shroom, so carefully walk off. This is a Type 2 Star.
Green Star Get #23!
Star Get #143, 4225 Star Bits, 2067 Coins, 14 Lives
Yes, I know I skipped Green Star 2. Sometimes, I did not get the Stars in numerical order. I'm just posting them in the order I got them.

Boulder Bowl Galaxy - Green Star 1

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
We land back in the galaxy and soon hear the Star. It's on top of the bridge, so do not get the Rock Shroom. It will make your life extremely difficult. Fortunately, I noticed the Star before I got it. I tried wall jumping up the now vertical rails of the bridge- don't knock it over. I went over the edge of the bridge- it's extremely thin at the top, so proceed with caution.
Take 2- I took a hit from a green Octoomba. With several attempts, I wall jumped up the bridge, spinning between jumps to gain altitude, to the top. Make sure you're not pushing the joystick to control the character into the bridge. It should only be right and left, no intermediate directions. Once on top of the bridge, very carefully walk to the center (just right or left) and backflip and spin to the Star. This can be a very tricky and frustrating Type 3 Star.
Green Star Get #22!
Star Get #142, 2048 Coins, 14 Lives

Puzzle Plank Galaxy - Green Star 3

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
While traveling through the galaxy, I get 3-up from the musical notes, and a 1-up from the coins in the green pipe. Once I trip the midgate and get past some of the saws, I see the Star underneath the wood I'm about to stand on. The Star is underneath the wood where the 1-up Shroom is. We wait on the wood in front of the saw in front of the 1-up. The wood sinks after the saw is finished cutting. We walk to and get the Star. (Depending on where you stand, you might have to jump for it.) This is a Star of all 3 Types.
Green Star Get #21!
Star Get #141, Galaxy Complete!, 4202 Star Bits, 2042 Coins, 15 Lives

Puzzle Plank Galaxy - Green Star 2

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
We wander farther into the galaxy. We pound the planet down to the Wigglers and get 3-up from the musical notes. There is nothing in the green pipe. We launch to the midgate. When we reach the saws, we see the Star high near the wall near Comet Medal. I missed the Star because I needed a wall from which to wall jump. I tried to long jump, but fell off.
Take 2- I backflipped from the semi-circular piece of wood and spun to the Star. This is a Type 3 Star.
Green Star Get #20!
Star Get #140, 4180 Star Bits, 24 Lives
This was a great session! I got 20 Stars relatively easily. At least for 2 more sessions, I get 20 Stars, which makes this part of the game initially easier than the 1st part. Here's to more great game sessions!

Puzzle Plank Galaxy - Green Star 1

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
We see a Star in the cutscenes that near the saws. We land back in the galaxy and find the first Star above an item block. It's very high above the block, making this a Type 3 Star. I broke the block when I pounded the spring, so I can't get it. I returned to the map.
Takes 2-9- I broke the block and returned to the map.
Take 10- I finally figured out how to get the Star. I got very close on other Takes, but ultimately was able to get the Star. When pounding the spring, direct away from under the block and spin (and possibly wall jump off the block) to get on top of the block. Once you land on the block, you may want to stop using the joystick so you don't fall off. Then backflip and spin to the Star.
Green Star Get #19!
Star Get #139, 22 Lives

Bowser Jr.'s Fiery Flotilla - Green Star 2

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
This Star was a little tricky to find. On my first try, I passed it entirely, ending up on the planet where you battle Gobblegut. I returned to the map to try again.
Take 2- I approach the Thwomp and I think I hear the Star. Unfortunately, I died trying to backflip onto the Thwomp.
Take 3- I found the Star on the planet with the lava after the first Sling Star. The Star is between "solar" flares. Despite having a Life Shroom, I died from the lava.
Take 4- I got the Life Shroom again. I long jumped from where the Launch Star is and spun to get the Star. This is a Type 1, Type 2 Star.
Green Star Get #18!
Star Get #138, Galaxy Complete!, 4159 Star Bits, 1979 Coins, 22 Lives
"World" 1 is complete, and we're just getting started! A gold crown appears on its map icon. To "World" 2!

Bowser Jr.'s Fiery Flotilla - Green Star 1

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
Here's where Star placement starts to get really creative: places you didn't think you could reach. After making my way to the door of the fortress (taking damage along the way), and slinging to the midgate, I hear the star. I hit a fire bar and fell into the lava, and I saw the Star on one of the turrets. How am I supposed to get up there? Well, I can't go there now because I just slung and I fell in the lava and died.
Take 2- I decide that it would be a good idea to ride on the top of the Thowmp to reach the top of the fortress. Unfortunately, a bad back flip was my downfall.
Take 3- I took the Thwomp again, but this time, long jumped, wall-jumped, and then spun to reach the top of the castle. The designers really wanted us to explore everything they put in the game. There is a 1-up on top of the front wall. If you go to the left, to the far turret, you will find the Star. This is a Type 1, Type 3 Star.
Green Star Get #17!
Star Get #137, 4131 Star Bits, 1978 Coins, 23 Lives

Fluffy Bluff Galaxy - Green Star 3

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!This Star is much farther from the first 2. We have to launch twice and trip 2 midgates. I got 2 1-ups along the way. We find the Star on the mountain to the left of where we met The Chimp. We extend the cloud path with our own clouds, but I fell off the mountain.
Take 2- I used the clouds and successfully got the Star. This is a Type 1, Type 3 Star.
Green Star Get #16!
Star Get #16, Galaxy Complete!, 4105 Star Bits, 1976 Coins, 24 Lives

Fluffy Bluff Galaxy - Green Star 2

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
While wondering through the first planet, we find another green Star on the side of the cliff by the clouds that make a staircase. This is a Type 1, Type 3 Star. We climb up the cliff and use our clouds to make a path to the Star.
Green Star Get #15!
Star Get #135, 4089 Star Bits, 1974 Coins, 23 Lives

Fluffy Bluff Galaxy - Green Star 1

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
In the opening cutscenes, we see a Star on a high hill near Red Toad. This isn't that Star. I can hear the Star immediately when we land. I wander around, looking for it, but don't see it. Then I look up, waaaaay up, and see the Star directly above where we landed. This is a Type 1, Type 3. It's too high up for a mere backflip and spin. We grab a Cloud Flower, avoid the water, and make clouds to get the Star.
Green Star Get #14!
Star Get #134, 23 Lives

Rightside Down Galaxy - Green Star 2

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
I took the green pipe, and double checked the orange pipe, but there's nothing in the incinerator. I tripped the midgate and got 3-up from the bonus area. I took hit from 2 Paragoomba and a fly, and tripped the next midgate. I died from a Thwomp.
Take 2- I died from a Thwomp.
Take 3- I didn't get the Star, but I took a hit from a Goomba and died from a Thwomp.
Take 4- See Take 3.
Take 5- I found the Star above Green Toad, who is to the right of the 2nd set of Thwomps. We have to ride the third Thwomp in the pink gravity zone, then long jump to Green Toad. We backflip, then spin to get the Star. This is a Type 1, Type 3 Star.
Green Star Get #13!
Star Get #133, Galaxy Complete!, 4083 Star Bits, 1972 Coins, 23 Lives

Rightside Down Galaxy - Green Star 1

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
A Star appears above the 3rd midgate. I took a hit from a Paragoomba and tripped the midgate. I took more hits from a Chomp and a fly. I walked on the green wall of the planet, took a hit from a Goomba, then spun to the Star. This is a Type 3 Star.
Green Star Get #12!
Star Get #132, 3984 Star Bits, 1963 Coins, 24 Lives

Spin-Dig Galaxy - Green Star 3

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
After landing in the Galaxy, we step off the platform, but step off the side closest to the crystal to the Sling Star, so I only activate one Cosmic Clone. We sling to the Piranha Plant, which produces a vine when defeated. We take the pipe into the 2D antfarm and hear the Star, which is over the 2nd patch of dirt near a yellow drill. I missed the Star and killed the drill, so I returned to the map. This is a Type 1 Star.
Take 2- I lost the drill, but backflipped, then wall-jumped to the Star.
Green Star Get #11!
Star Get #131, Galaxy Complete!, 3953 Star Bits, 23 Lives

Spin-Dig Galaxy - Green Star 2

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
This is another Type 1 Star. After launching twice to the midgate we find ourselves on the circular planet with the disappearing platforms. I took a hit from a spinning flower. I backflipped and spun from the safe block near the Paragoomba. If you're more adventurous, you can try to time your jump with the appearance of the platforms.
Green Star Get #10!
Star Get #130, 3950 Star Bits, 1886 Coins, 23 Lives

Spin-Dig Galaxy - Green Star 1

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
This Star appears later in the galaxy. After taking a hit from a yellow drill, I launched and heard the Star chiming. I found it over of the fence that prevents you from going to the other side of the planet without a drill. I jumped to get on the fence, and backflipped and spun to get the Star. This was a Type 1 Star.
Green Star Get #9!
Star Get #129, 3937 Star Bits, 1866 Coins, 23 Lives

Flip-Swap Galaxy - Green Star 2

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
I got a bad start to the mission from a bad shake while untangling the Nunchuk.
Take 2- I reached the midgate and saw the Star by the 2nd set of Chomps. The Star is near a black hole. I was knocked off by a Chomp.
Take 3- I got the Star with a backflip and a spin. This was a Type 1, with some timing involved.
Green Star Get #8!
Star Get #128, Galaxy Complete!, 3925 Star Bits, 23 Lives

Flip-Swap Galaxy - Green Star 1

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
This Star isn't too difficult to find: they show you where it is in the cutscenes. It's high above a red platform early in the galaxy. This is a Type 1 Star. Just stand underneath its shadow and backflip, then spin. You should get this on your first try because spinning will flip the platform out from under you, and you'll fall off if you don't get the Star. If you're particularly daring, you might try triple jumping instead of backflipping.
Green Star Get #7!
Star Get #127, 1863 Coins, 25 Lives

Yoshi Star Galaxy - Green Star 3

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
I defeated the Magikoopa and got Yoshi. (You need him for this Star.) I took a hit from an Octoomba and launched to the midgate. I launched again and took a hit from a Piranha Plant. I used the Swing Flowers to reach the Launch Star, launched, tripped the midgate, and fell off.
Take 2- I got a 1-up from pulling out a platform. I took hits from a spider and a Goomba, before finding the Star. The Star is near the Power Star, but high above the Swing Flowers, which makes it a Type 3 Star. It took me several tries, but I finally timed a jump off of Yoshi to get it. You might be able to hover with Yoshi, but jumping off Yoshi is what worked for me.
Green Star Get #6!
Star Get #126, Galaxy Complete!, 3904 Star Bits, 1862 Coins, 25 Lives

Yoshi Star Galaxy - Green Star 2

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
It's time to find another green Star! I took out the Magikoopa and got 3-up in the bonus area. I took a hit from an Octoomba and found the Star near the orange plant that yields a Launch Star. It's a Type 1 and Type 2 Star, as it is on the side of the planet over the void. I used Yoshi to get it, so I could recover if necessary. It's not too difficult to get, but care should be used.
Green Star Get #5!
Star Get #125, 3817 Star Bits, 1852 Coins, 25 Lives

Yoshi Star Galaxy - Green Star 1

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
We see this Star in the cutscenes before flying into the galaxy, so we already know where it is: above the Comet Medal on the hill. This is a Type 1 Star, and the cutscene made finding this Star extremely easy. I took a hit from a red, spiky plant, backflipped onto the hill, and jumped to get the Star. That was easy!
Green Star Get #4!
Star Get #124, 1847 Coins, 22 Lives

Sky Station Galaxy - Green Star 3

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
This time, we land in the Storming the Sky Fleet version of Sky Station. I got a 1-up in the treasure chest and launched to the midgate. I wander into the interior of the cylindrical planet. I hear that the Star is somewhere in here. I am hit by an Amp and find the Star high above the bonus area disc. I backflipped, wall-jumped, and spun to get it. This is a Type 1 Star.
Green Star Get #3!
Star Get #123, Galaxy Complete!, 22 Lives
This time, when we get a Galaxy Complete!, a gold crown appears next to the galaxy's map symbol.

Sky Station Galaxy - Green Star 2

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
I got a 1-up from the orange pipe, and found Green Star 1, now clear, where I found it. I took a hit from a Goomba, and launched, after not finding anything else of interest. I got 7 1-ups from the platforms, the musical notes, and the bonus area. I tripped the midgate, but fell off the planet after getting the bonus area 1-ups.
Take 2- I got the 3-up from the musical notes, and heard the Star, but couldn't find it. I adjusted my camera angle and realized that this was a Type 1 and Type 2 Star. I found it on the other side of the platform where the Luma transforms into a Launch Star, where the rising platforms are. I hopped off the planet and let gravity take me to the Star, which was floating over nothing. If I had missed, I would have died.

Begin transmission in t minus 3, 2, 1. We're getting something new here. Luigi switch go! - Transmission 8
Welcome Back to the Galaxy!
Let's start collecting Green Stars! When we select a Green Star Comet mission, we can choose to complete whichever mission we want. Each galaxy has an equal number of Green Stars as it does Power Stars. The missions are given creative titles such as Green Star 1, Green Star 2, and Green Star 3. The numbers reset back to 1 for each galaxy, so there's no counting up to 120 in the mission title.
We land back in the galaxy. I immediately get the 1-up using the orange pipe. This is a Type 1 Star.I hear the chiming of the first Green Star near the pipes and see its shine. It's right next to the house at the edge. I backflipped, wall-jumped, and spun to get it. You can also get it by walking off the roof of the house, if you'd like. That was easy!
