World 2 is the second world featured inSuper Mario Galaxy 2 and itsNintendo Switchport. It is located near a solar system different from Mario's; however, a very similar solar system was seen for a second during the ending ofSuper Mario Galaxy. In this world, there are many different galaxies, the last of which,Bowser's Lava Lair, features the first encounter withBowser.
The music of this world is reused fromWorld 1's music until greenPrankster Comets begin appearing, which changes the music of World 1.
