Overview

â„šī¸
CWNU 3040 is a poorly populated, very loose object of low C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a large* distance, near the mid-plane, affected by high extinction. It is catalogued as a very young cluster (see Parameters). It was recently reported in the literature.

(*): The parallax distance estimate (~7.17 kpc) differs significantly from the median photometric distance (~21.38 kpc).

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