Today's date is a mathematical rarity, it is special as well as rare. This date falls on Tuesday and therefore, netizens are even calling it 'Twosday', for it is doubly rare. The date is not just a palindrome, but an ambigram as well.

A Palindrome is a word, number, phrase, or other sequence of characters that reads the same backward as forward, such as madam or racecar. Whereas Ambigram is something (such as an image of a written word or phrase) that is intended or able to be oriented in either of two ways for viewing or reading When flipped upside down, it can create the same image, or may form a new image entirely.

Numerically, today's date, (22 February 2022) appears as 22/02/2022 and therefore, it can be read the same way as forward and backwards and interestingly, it will remain the same if read upside down.

If dots, slash or even hyphens are dropped from today's date, it will appear as 22022022. This number only contains two digits, which is 0 and 2. This date will work as the palindrome and ambigram for the British date format (dd-mm-yyyy), but the same is not applicable for the US date format (mm-dd-yyyy) for 22 February 2022.
Palindrome days only tend to occur only in the first few centuries of each millennium. On Twitter, netizens are sharing posts about this special date.

Today’s date is an ambigram and a palindrome; it reads the same left to right, right to left and upside down!

What’s interesting is that it’s also a Tuesday because what else would you call today but a 2’s day? pic.twitter.com/ht3s53z9nQ

Two years back in 2020, 02 February was also a palindromic date. This millennium will see 60 palindromic dates, the first being 10 February 2001 (10/02/2001) and the last being 29 December 2192 (29/12/2192). The next time both day/month/year and month/day/year formats will align will be on 03 March, 3030 (03/03/3030).
