Overview

ℹ️

AFGL 5180 is a sparse, loose object of low C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a moderate^* distance, above the mid-plane. It is catalogued as a cluster (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature, with no articles listed in the last 23 years.

(*): The parallax distance estimate (~2.81 kpc) differs significantly from the median photometric distance (~1.50 kpc).

Note: This object shares a very small percentage of members with at least one entry reported in the same catalogue. See table with shared members information.

⚠️ Warning: the low UTI value and no obvious signs of duplication (C_dup=1.0) indicate that this is quite probably an asterism, moving group, or artifact, and not a real open cluster.
