This bendable space mirror can have its shape shifted to compensate for manufacturing or alignment errors within orbital telescopes or temperature-driven distortions.
Very large space telescopes are necessary to increase image resolution and sensitivity, whether for deep space exoplanet detection or sharpened views of the terrestrial environment. But large instruments will be harder to align and more sensitive to the absence of gravity and the environmental extremes of space. Being able to actively correct a telescope mirror’s shape offers a way forward.
Piezoelectric actuators placed under this prototype 50 mm mirror serve to deform its shape. The resulting change in shape is invisible to the naked eye, around a thousandth of a millimetre or less, but it will still enable previously impossible missions to take place.
A set of ten mirrors were produced by OHB-System and the Muenster University of Applied Optics in Germany through ESA’s General Support Technology Programme – readying promising technologies for space and commercial markets – and tested against launch stresses in ESA’s Mechanical Systems Laboratory.

This photo was taken in Tarragon village of a wall decal outside a cafe.
The arrow shape creates a distinct outline from the white to black.
I love how the black wall contrasts with the white arrow perfectly.
I would have love to take this without the shadows of the telephone lines as I find them a bit distracting.

So far, we've been in New Mexico for three days and I've not taken any of the usual photographs that you might expect.
We've been enjoying friends and making new friends. Visiting Labor Day weekend festivals and seeing the city. We've also ingested our good share of great New Mexican chilies, as prepared in many ways. The cuisine is outstanding around here.
I intend to go hiking for the first time this trip tomorrow.
Today, at a local winery fest, this was my favorite photo. I looked up at the end of our stay, and saw these magnificent cumulonimbus clouds, blocking the sun, which brought out those sharply defined rays, known as crepuscular rays. I had a telephoto lens on, so you get just part of the show that the clouds and sun put on. You get the idea.
Glorious, isn't it?
