Matter

Matter is an object in Super Mario Galaxy.
==Description==
Matter is an environmental element functioning like a spotlight, and it makes platforms and terrain manifest wherever it occupies. When the matter shifts through space, the terrain disappears behind it. If Mario or Luigi does not keep up, he falls through the empty space below and loses a life.
==In Super Mario Galaxy==
Matter appears in Ghostly Galaxy and Matter Splatter Galaxy, and parts of them feature matter as bouncing droplets that briefly make terrain appear in the spots they strike.
==Trivia==
*A similar concept is incorporated into Haunty Halls Galaxy and Sweet Mystery Galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy 2, where some platforms appear only under the shine of Bulb Yoshi's light. The enemy Mattermouth inverts this concept by eating through terrain and leaving empty space in its wake.
