    Hi @araf1626 and welcome 😃

    Those are actually foreground stars from our own galaxy. They look really odd as something went wrong with the imaging the night this picture was taken.

    This thread has a lot of info on the the artifact you could encounter here

    Have fun classifying!

    Capella.
