๐ is the milky way: a purple-blue night sky streaked with stars. It is the space and galaxy emoji โ stargazing, dark-sky trips, the universe, cosmic wonder โ and a dreamy aesthetic for captions about big feelings and small selves (โweโre all just stardust ๐โ). Original 2010 emoji. Its neighbours: ๐ช ringed planet, ๐ shooting star on the star page, ๐ญ telescope and ๐ฝ alien.
