A '''black hole''' is a dangerous hazard found in a few games within the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]], most notably in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and its sequel, ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. It is based loosely on real {{wp|black hole}}s.

====''Mario Party 5''====
In ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', a black hole appears in the background of the minigame [[Frightmare]]. After Bowser is defeated, the black hole increases its force and Bowser struggles to escape, but he fails and breaks the side gates, falling into the black hole.

Black holes make their first general appearance in the franchise in the ''[[Mario Party 6]]'' Duel [[minigame]] [[Black Hole Boogie]]. Here, both players must rapidly press {{button|gcn|A}} to escape the black hole. Also, in the minigame [[Seer Terror]], one of the fortunes has [[Bowser]] sucked into a black hole.

Black holes play a much larger role in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', where they act as obstacles that suck in any characters, enemies and objects within its range. Most black holes are seen under floating landmasses, where they act as "pits", or else near areas with [[Sling Pod]]s or [[cannon]]s. If Mario or Luigi get too close to a black hole, its [[gravity]] begins to pull them in playing a warped eerie sound in the process. Being sucked into one instantly depletes the [[Health Meter]], and they lose a [[life]]. Enemies destroyed by falling into black holes do not yield any [[coin]]s or [[Star Bit]]s.

In some galaxies such as the [[Hurry-Scurry Galaxy]], successfully collecting a group of [[note]]s turns a nearby black hole into a [[Power Star]]. The Power Star pulls Mario or Luigi closer using a similar gravitational pull.

At the end of ''Super Mario Galaxy'', after Mario/Luigi has defeated [[Bowser]] for the final time, one of the planets (the brown planet) near Bowser's giant star undergoes a supernova.
=====''Supernova process''=====
The planet starts to have its rock either split from each other or sink into the magma below, then after, when all the rock sinks into the magma, the planet swells and becomes big and eventually collapses.


The brown planet then collapses on itself and becomes a {{wp|supermassive black hole}}, which quickly begins to engulf Mario/Luigi, [[Princess Peach]], Bowser and his entire fleet of [[Airship]]s, [[Peach's Castle]], and even the [[Comet Observatory]]. Just as everything is about to be destroyed, [[Baby Luma]] suddenly appears in front of Mario/Luigi, waves at him and then sacrifices himself by throwing himself into the black hole. Thousands of other [[Luma]]s soon join him in flinging themselves into the supermassive black hole in hopes of stabilizing it and ultimately saving the universe from destruction. Eventually, the black hole shrinks and twists wildly as a red and blue tornado thing around in space before finally exploding, thereby reforming the entire cosmos and creating an entirely new galaxy, which Mario/Luigi welcomes in the final cutscene of the game.
