Messier 11 Makes it to the Hubble’s Messier Catalog

A portion of Messier 11 is shown in the star-studded image below. Messier 11 is an open star cluster in the southern constellation of Scutum—the Shield. It is also called the Wild Duck Cluster since its brightest stars form a “V” shape that resembles, to some extent, a flock of ducks in flight.
