      Just speculation but it would be totally plausible for a helix shaped galaxy or star (possibly being pulled into a black hole) oriented from an odd angle, with either a gap or a cloud of some sort blocking one part of it and it just happens to look like a common glyph.

      But I’m no starologist

        I wanted to guess gravitational lensing, but couldn’t see how that would make a question mark… it’s still pretty cool!
