The CometMedal here is on the far left side of the area. Grab it quick and get out of the corner as fast as you can.

Stay to the right of the track, and when it splits to grab the medal.

TWISTY TRIALS GALAXY

STONE CYCLONE GALAXY

46: Silver stars on the Cyclone
This comet medal is located on a very fast moving block in the center of the area. You can use the button to slow down time to get it, or just time a jump really well while on the moving block.

BOSS BLITZ GALAXY

47: Throwback Throwdown:
For this comet medal, when you battle against King Kaliente, head to the underside and you will find it in the center there. Do a back flip and spin to grab it.

FLIP-OUT GALAXY

48: Wicked Wall Jumps
For this medal, things get tricky. When you see it on top of the blue walls, you will need to ignore it until you bounce up the walls after the spikes. Then you can long jump to the left and spin to pull the ledge out and jump over the gap again to grab the coin.
