“A sweet cosmic rose to brighten your day,” they wrote as the opening line of the post and shared a visualization video that shows two interacting galaxies.

“Comprised of two interacting galaxies distorted by their mutual gravitational pull, Arp 273 forms a stunning galactic masterpiece resembling a rose. These galaxies lie around 300 million light-years away in the constellation Andromeda.
