Overview

ℹ️

CWNU 303 is a sparse, very loose 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 metal-rich, young cluster (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature.

Note: This object shares a 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.
