I think this is really cool and deserves more attention from the space community as little of it has been in the headlines lately.

Anyone with an astronomy background here?

I like those kind of misteries.

Might have something to do with the fact that this amazes some people.

It mostly intrigues people that are interested in Physics. When you think of a vortex, you think of a circle don't you? Not a hexagon. Plus it's a perfect hexagon to the naked eye. No side is bigger than another. Strangely cool.

Space makes me believe in God and doubt His existence at the same time.

I think its very strange and interesting. I'd like to know why it's a hexagon though.
