The stars seen throughout are part of the cluster NGC 6530, located about 4,350 light-years away.
The American space agency NASA's Hubble Space Telescope recently captured a stunning image of NGC 6530, which is a young open cluster of stars in the southern constellation of Sagittarius, located some 4,350 light-years from Earth.
Taking to Instagram, the space agency shared the image, which showed a collection of thousands of stars.
"A collection of thousands of stars lie around 4,350 light-years from Earth in the constellation Sagittarius. Set within the Lagoon Nebula - a stellar nursery with scorching temperatures, stellar winds, and powerful radiation - these stars form in a gigantic cloud of interstellar dust and gas," the space agency wrote in the caption of the post.
