Super Mario 3D World: Star-9 -- Cosmic Cannon Cluster

You'll need 210 Green Stars to unlock this level. You may want to bring a Super Bell. There is a switchboard at the start of the level. Stand on the switchboard to start moving past Para Dry Bones and cannons. Hit the cannons for a Cannon Cap. The path loops around to four item blocks floating in space. Charge up your cannon and aim it at the blocks. It's a little difficult when you're moving. Hitting the item blocks will make blocks extend so you can reach the stamp. Quickly return to the switchboard before the blocks disappear. Follow the path to solid ground. There are some Spinies here. On the back wall are several cannons. To climb up the wall without a Super Bell, you'll have to bounce off the cannon balls as they appear. At the top, you'll find two cracked walls. The one on the right has the first Green Star. The left wall has coins. Take the pipe underwater.

This part scrolls automatically. There are several cannons underwater. Blast the item blocks and POW Blocks for coins. Stay towards the bottom so you can blast the brick blocks under the arch on the floor. The second Green Star is hidden here. The pipe takes you to the midpoint. There are more switchboards here and ! Switches to hit. You can only hit them with charged shots, so aim well. The rails dead end without rail guards, so change directions before you fall off. Hit the second ! Switch so the track will lead you to the third Green Star. You'll need a well-aimed charge shot to hit it without the switchboard falling off the rails. Switch back to the main track, then keep hitting switches until you reach the flagpole. You'll need to bounce off the cannonballs to reach the flag.

The stamp is of a Cannon Cap.
