The Mirror Galaxy, M100 // Rolf Olsen

Clearly the Mirror Galaxy is in an area of the sky rich with other galaxies. M100 is a member of the Virgo Cluster, and is about 55 million light years away.

This galaxy was discovered by Méchain in 1781, and played a role in the first observations of the Hubble Space Telescope. Within weeks of launch of the HST in 1990, operators noticed a flaw in the optical system causing the images to be blurrier than expected. This was caused by the fact that the optical mirror had been polished to the wrong shape: the outer perimeter of the mirror was too flat by about 2,200 nanometers (1/11,000 of an inch)!

To fix the issue, NASA sent up a servicing mission in December 1993 and installed what are effectively corrective glasses. In January 1994, NASA declared the mission a complete success and showed the first sharper images. Below, you can see what a difference corrective optics makes!

mccoy always teases spock about keeping his feelings tucked away and not let them affect him (although we all know they do), and how it prevents him of living life to the fullest. spock has got to do it because he was treated as different all his life for being only half vulcan, so now he's gotta be at least two times more vulcan so other vulcans will start to consider him one of theirs, even though he will never be the same as them. but actually, mccoy himself keeps his heart guarded because his life is unbearable. he hates space, travelling in space, being in closed environments, he didn't even want to be a doctor, suffered a hard divorce and left a daughter behind. mccoy has got to guard his heart every minute of every day, cause otherwise he would suffer. mccoy teases spock for what he himself does every single day, because he knows you could live like that, but in his eyes it's so much better to experience life to the fullest, especially if what you do in life gives you joy and purpose. he doesn't want anyone to live like he has to if they have, in his eyes, a better alternative

#but he doesnt understand spock has got to live as he does #at least up to a certain point in the canon #they are mirroring each other so thats why they have to be bonded for life and also hate each others guts #this is also why mccoy always shows so much emotion when he can #thinking bout how kirk met spock and thought to himself he is polar opposite to his good friend bones #i have to introduce them itll be SO funny #and he doesnt know he introduced two of the most complicated men in the galaxy to each other #he just gotta have the action around him no boring people on the enterprise bridge #so his two closest people has got to be these two insane bastards #star trek #st: tos #the original series #leonard mccoy #bones mccoy #spock #s'chn t'gai spock #mcspock #spones #jim kirk #captain kirk #james t kirk #spirk #mcspirk #mckirk #triumvirate #st text posts #star trek text post #mine

The Mirror Galaxy, M100 // sydney

Seen almost face-on, the Mirror Galaxy is a starburst galaxy with strong bursts of star formation happening in the central regions of the galaxy over the last 500 million years. M100 has two satellite galaxies visible in this image, NGC 4323 (bottom) and NGC 4328 (left), connected to M100 by a bridge of stars.

So Mir Falspar and Mir Dragato are in an on and off relationship, right? But what about regular Dragato and Falspar? Are they just friends?

In the prime world, Falspar and Dragato have been friends for ages as far as any one can tell, even if they do break out into feuds more often than not. Dragato's always been pretty content with this. Falspar knows he's supposed to be content with this too. A few years ago, he had a dooming realization that this wasn't quite the case anymore, and has been hiding any signs of having perhaps a teensy tiny crush ever since.

If you want the mirror counterparts' opinions on it, though—

You'll get varying answers.

I hope this ain’t too much a kdkfkf but for Mirror and Soren?

SUNSHINE - Early bird or night owl?

HONEY - What is their best trait?

BUTTERSCOTCH - Would they have tumblr?

Definitely not too much 💙

SUNSHINE - Early bird or night owl?

Soren is an early bird. He has one of those alarm clock radios, and he always wakes up to the 5:00 AM news. Listens to the news while dressing up and making himself a cup of caf or tea and then listens to music while having his breakfast. Is at work at 7:00 AM sharp. He has done this same routine for like 40 years at this point.

Mirror is....definitely a night owl, if these are the options. The more accurate version is that he just kinda works on his own schedule and circadian rythm. Most likely he is sleeping around 4 PM. Otherwise it doesn't matter if you knock on his mancave office door at 10 PM or 4 AM, he is awake.

HONEY - What is their best trait?

With Mirror, the attention to detail. He notices even the smallest things and is able to have his work (he's the Senior Communications Officer of the Coruscant Guard) be near flawless because of that. There's nothing that slips by him, and he is able to recognise people and other things from very minute things, like the certain way they write even one letter. Of course he is in general a very friendly person, even if he keeps to himself most of the time.

With Soren, definitely the way he refuses to be quiet about things. He is very dismayed about how many people around him, even the people he works with, are swept into a very Imperialist mindset, or how they treat other people worse than them, like the clones, but he is over 60, has had his job as the Senate Guard for decades now, and he is not going to keep his mouth shut when people around him start to spew garbage. He has nothing to lose, but many other people do. You aren't going to silence this old man. He isn't scared of you.

BUTTERSCOTCH - Would they have tumblr?

Mirror absolutely. Oh he would be meeming around constantly and then drop a long post about something very niche out of the blue one Monday. He would love it here.

Soren, no. He knows how to use technology and social media, but he isn't really interested in it. He does listen to when Saga explains tumblr memes to him and laughs every time, though. Also says things like skill issue and it was their turn in the blender unironically now.

#ah yes the high-tech nerd spy with most style in the galaxy #and the old man papa who will punch a fascist in the face #love them <3 #oc: #oc: ct 8996 mirror #oc: soren braek #kenzi💙 #sw #tcw
