Overview
Berkeley 67 is a rich, very dense object of high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a moderate distance, above the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as a massive, near-solar metallicity, old cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the metallicity and mass parameters (see Parameters). It is well-studied in the literature.
