A Star Marker is an object which appears in Super Mario 64 and its remake Super Mario 64 DS.

Description[]

A Star Marker is in the shape of a five-pointed star, and it is dark blue and somewhat translucent. A Star Marker is always hovering slightly above the ground in a set location. A Star Marker only appears in courses and secret levels with a set of eight red Red Coins, as when Mario collects every Red Coin, a Power Star appears over the Star Marker.

The only main course to not have a Star Marker for its Red Coin mission is Jolly Roger Bay, where completing the mission Red Coins on the Ship Afloat causes the Power Star to appear over the ship. All three Bowser stages—Bowser in the Dark World, Bowser in the Fire Sea, and Bowser in the Sky—lack a Star Marker even though they each have their own set of eight Red Coins for Mario to collect.
