Hello! I sent this question a few time but I don’t know if you got it so I’ll just ask again.

How would the other versions of Starscream react to TFA Skyline? ( Starscreams twin) And/or Sky cluster. (Daughter)

Okay this one is heading a bit to Nutshell territory, but I'll still answer it!

Let us begin!

Skyline

Many helms are turning after hearing that they have a twin in another universe. Most are out of curiosity and wonder, what is this mech like.

G1 and TFP are the most disappointed in finding out Skyline is so soft. There is even disgust after finding out that he is not only loyal to Megatron, but does not help him over throw the tyrant! The nerve of this mech! The mechs most likely to throw disappointment like its candy.

IDW/MTMTE, TFE, and TF1 are curious about Skyline. These mechs want to hear more about his role in the Decepticon ranks and most importantly what he means to his Starscream. There is a lot of silence from IDW/MTMTE and TFE. They could have had a caring twin that would have had their back... Granted he was loyal to Megatron, but maybe they could have changed things a bit. These Starscreams are more eager to hear about the alternate universes and maybe some stories about the twins adventures.

SG! Starscream is excited to meet someone who is considered his twin. Even more when he realizes that Skyline takes up a bit more like him. Its rare to find a good mech theses days, and he is honored to have a twin that fits so many boxes. This is the Starscream that will ask for more brother moments than war stories.

Star Cluster

Much like with Skyline, helms are turning. If not faster hearing that they have an alternate dimension daughter they don't know about. When? How? Why?!

No matter how much these Starscream's bicker and fight, the second they hear about Star Cluster. There is some agreement to be as calm as possible.

G1 is probably the only Starscream that doesn't think too much on her. Yes she is something... new, but he doesn't know how to react. Its been eons since he has seen a youngling, let alone interacted with one. He mostly stays to himself while watching from afar.

TFA thinks that she could be another clone, like Slipstream. Does treat her as such until her more fiery spirit starts to show. If there is a version of him that has her... he is one lucky mech. After the initial talk, TFA is much more leniant to talking.

SG! is so excited to have a daughter! What does she like? How did she met her Starscream? Is he doing a good job? What is her favorite color?! This Starscream really wants to get to know her!

IDW/MTMTE, TFE, and TF1 are stunned. He has a what... These Starscreams are a bit more quiet hearing about her tales and explorations around Earth. All of them go rigid at the mention of Starscream trying to get her to do some of his schemes or have her flying in the war. These are the Starscream's that first form a little group around Star Cluster whenever she is talking to someone. Such a bright little youngling, so full of hope and life...

The Orion Nebula & Running Man | M42 & sh2-279 - Providence, RI . Taking old data and reprocessing it with newer techniques to bring out more detail and clarity is a very satisfying (and potentially frustrating) experience. This is data that I took that I was not able to combine with other data without a lot of weird artifacts. This led me to just processing it and leaving it be. Going back, I was able to keep the core muted more while brining out more dust and color. All processing here was done with Photoshop, using DeepSkyStacker to stack the data. .

Last night a waxing gibbous moon, Aldebaran, Mars and the Pleiades star cluster converged to form a cool triangle in the night sky. This is a very quick, rough edit. Did anyone else see or photograph this event? This was taken with a crop sensor Nikon D7200 and Tamron 28-70mm lens and a standard tripod. A combination of two exposures.

Nebular Nook Oil, 9 x 6 inches A new detailed study available on @everydayorig Monday morning. Within the nebulous gas of deceased giants, new stars are born. Stretching out their first solar winds, they carve out a space for themselves in the dust.

The Double Cluster contains two open star clusters. NGC869 and NCG884 reside in the constellation of Perseus. At a distance of 7,500 light years away this pair of clusters is visible to the naked eye.
