Overview
Alessi 72 is a poorly populated, loose object of intermediate C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a relatively close distance, below the mid-plane, affected by low extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, young cluster (see Parameters). It is poorly studied in the literature.
Note: This object shares a significant percentage of members with a later reported entry. See table with shared members information.
