She makes her home in the [[Locations in Super Mario Galaxy#Comet Observatory|Comet Observatory]], a spaceship that is capable of traveling all across the universe.

Rosalina was once a girl who lived on the same planet as the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. She was known to have a pair of parents and a brother. Rosalina's mother died during her childhood, and before she passed, she told Rosalina that she was going to become a star to watch over her. Some time afterwards, a [[Luma]] crashed on the planet looking for its own mother, who was supposed to be traveling at a comet. Rosalina decided to help the Luma with its quest. After several years of checking the skies with her father's telescope, Rosalina realized that they should find the celestial mother themselves. So they fixed up the Luma's spaceship and set off on a journey. | Rosalina was once a girl who lived on the same planet as the [[Mushroom Kingdom]].

After some time of searching, Rosalina and the Luma came upon a turquoise comet covered in ice and built a house there. The comet then came into range of an apricot-colored planet from which more of the Lumas emerged, all declaring Rosalina to be their mother. The first Luma followed along, and Rosalina agreed to care for them. |
Rosalina often longed for her home and family, which led the first Luma to transform into a new comet that would carry the old one to her home planet. From then on, the comet passed by the planet once every 100 years in an event that became known as the Star Festival in the Mushroom KIngdom. No longer upset, Rosalina accepted the Lumas as her family and cared for them. She baked a cake for each newborn and smiled to each of them as they became old enough to turn into new stars and galaxies. | Rosalina often longed for her home and family, which led the first Luma to transform into a new comet that would carry the old one to her home planet.
