Overview

â„šī¸
CWNU 249 is a sparse, moderately dense object of intermediate C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a relatively close distance, near the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the age parameter (see Parameters). It is poorly studied in the literature.
