The Recorder enjoys observing unique and interesting events, ranging from stellar phenomena (two galaxies colliding, a star going supernova in an interesting way), to gigantic battles (with or without superhumans), to particularly noteworthy sunsets. He is the Ultimate Historian, the Cosmic Chronicler for whom no noteworthy event is too small to remember for posterity and no galaxy-wide historical trend is too vast to escape his watchful eye and mind. To record an event, being, or object of interest, the Recorder creates a “Recorder Window” that captures an indestructible three-dimensional image of the entire phenomenon. He displays his archive of Windows — trillions upon trillions of them, all carefully and lovingly indexed — in his Gallery of the Universe, a “museum” the size of a supergiant star.
