Nasa’s Instagram profile is nothing short of a treasure trove for those who love exploring different content that give a peek of the world outside our Blue Planet. In case you’re an enthusiast, here is a post by the space agency which will leave you very happy. It shows the striking similarities between a particular resting postion of the Florida manatees and a 700 light-year-long supernova remnant.
A video showcasing the similarities, shared by Nasa along with a descriptive caption, has now left people in awe. There is a possibility that the post will mesmerise you too.
“Florida Manatees are about 10 feet long & spend much of their day resting, often on their backs with their flippers crossed over their plump bellies — a pose that closely resembles the 700 light-year-long supernova remnant W50, also known as the Manatee Nebula,” they wrote. Nasa shared the post on the occasion of World Oceans Day, celebrated on June 8 each year.
