## Caption

No matter the similarities and differences, every galaxy is beautiful in its own way. 💜 💫⁣
⁣
In this image from NASAHubble, we see a galaxy very similar to our own Milky Way. NGC 772 is a spiral galaxy. From a glowing center, bright specks of star formation weave into dark ripples of cosmic dust. ⁣
⁣
NGC 772 differs from our home galaxy in that it’s a “peculiar” spiral galaxy — meaning it is odd in size, shape or composition. However, this doesn't change how stunningly beautiful it is. ⁣
