Their intergalactic message served as a history lesson beyond our atmosphere, as they also posted a gif of several images of galaxies far, far, away. The images confirm there is no Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.

NASA also got a little help from its friends to twist and shout for the beloved Beatles drummer.

The space agency’s Mars rover, nicknamed Perseverance, jumped in the festivities with a sweet message posted to social media.

“With a little help from my friends on Earth, I’d like to say happy birthday to (Ringo Starr), who wished me well when I landed on Mars. May your day be filled with #PeaceAndLove,” the dedicated rover account tweeted.

From the cosmos, to here on Earth, happy birthday Ringo Starr.
