Stock 1 is an open cluster in the constellation Vulpecula. The Stock 1 cluster contains 33 named stars over 100 light years, bounded by HD 338562 and HD 185242.

The cluster contains mostly A-class stars with a few B-, F- and G-class stars. The reference system HD 338660 contains an unusual G-class giant with an earth-like world. HD 338562 is a fantastic spot for gas giant scientists, having no less than 2 helium-rich giants, 2 water giants, and 2 different life bearing giants (water and ammonia types).

The cluster was originally identified by Jurgen Stock in 1956. Stock was an influential astronomer in Latin America during the 1960s, and a director for the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory (source).
