The quote "It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light" was said by Aristotle Onasis.
The invention of the mirror dates back to ancient times, with the first archaeological evidence found in Turkey around 6000 BC. The earliest mirrors were made of polished stone or metal, and they were used by several ancient civilizations such as the Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans. The concept of reflection and the basic principles behind mirrors have been around for thousands of years.
In some cultures and beliefs, having two mirrors facing each other is considered bad luck because it is said to create an infinite loop of energy that can affect the inhabitants of the space negatively. It is thought to disrupt the flow of energy and create confusion or stagnation.
The mirror was first used for personal grooming and self-reflection. In ancient times, mirrors were made from polished stones or metals such as bronze and were used to see one's own reflection.
No, you cannot see Bloody Mary in the light. The legend typically involves summoning her in a dark room with a mirror. Bloody Mary is said to appear in the mirror when specific rituals are performed in the dark.
Concave mirror.
A CONCAVE mirror is a mirror with a reflecting surface that curves inward.
plane & concave Mirrors create them they are formed when rays actually meet
they are called concave mirror ... mirrors whose center bulges out are called convex, and can reflect a wider view than a flat mirrored surface, but the objects are "larger than they appear", and also "closer than they appear." These are most often seen on right hand mirrors on vehicles, to help minimise blind spots. mirrors whose center is recessed are called concave (remember the term by thinking of a shallow cave.) Depending upon how close you are to the mirror's focal point, objects appear larger than they really are, or upside down. These are often seen in makeup mirrors so you get a clearer view of your face when shaving or applying makeup. Combinations of both convex and concave mirrors are seen in funhouses of amusement parks, to make the viewer look skinnier and taller, shorter and fatter, or even upside down.
If an object is concave, it means that is contains a surface that curves inward. Eyeglass lenses and bowls, for example, can both be said to be concave.

A real time illusion transmitter for transmitting three dimensional illusions of an object comprising a first parabolic mirror for producing a real image of an illuminated object, image detection means disposed in a position to receive said real image and adapted to generate video signals for transmission by cable or electromagnetic means, a second parabolic mirror located at a remote site and having associated therewith an image projector for producing an image from signals transmitted from said first parabolic mirror; said image projector projecting an image normal to the principle axis of the parabolic mirror to produce an illusion of the image when reflected from the parabolic mirror.
