Galactic Universe

"Forced from the cosmos of the Matoran, the Mask of Life soars through space, its' final destination unknown."

- Narrator, Mata Nui Rising

The Galactic Universe is the cosmos in the BIONICLE storyline.

History
The Galactic Universe contains celestial objects such as stars, planets, and moons, along with asteroids, galaxies and nebulae. Many of these planets are inhabited with various sentient beings and societies. One planet, named Spherus Magna, was split into three pieces in an event known as "The Shattering", these pieces titled Bara Magna, Aqua Magna and Bota Magna. Sent from the planet, a giant mechanoid known as Mata Nui began a long journey through the various planets, observing them, and occasionally landing on them to witness their societies. While returning from his journey, the Brotherhood of Makuta, an organization created to maintain order inside him, rebelled against him and released a virus which rendered him comatose. This in turn caused his body to shut down, and it crashed into the endless ocean of the Aqua Magna fragment. When Makuta Teridax took over the Matoran Universe, he sealed Mata Nui's spirit inside the Kanohi Ignika and hurled it out of the mechanical body from Aqua Magna and into the Galactic Universe. It flew through space, until the gravity of other celestial bodies eventually forced it to land on Bara Magna. Teridax later departed Aqua Magna for Bara Magna with the intention of destroying Mata Nui once and for all. In transit, he teleported Helryx, Lewa, Artakha, Axonn, Brutaka, Miserix, Tuyet, Hafu, and Kapura outside of his body and into the void of space.
