This star-studded image shows us a portion of Messier 11, an open star cluster in the southern constellation of Scutum (the Shield). Messier 11 is also known as the Wild Duck Cluster, as its brightest stars form a “V” shape that somewhat resembles a flock of ducks in flight. via NASA http://www.nasa.gov/image-feature/goddard/2019/hubble-spots-flock-of-cosmic-ducks
