Overview
CWNU 338 is a moderately populated, very dense object of very high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a close distance, near the mid-plane, affected by low extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, very young cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the absorption parameter (see Parameters). It is poorly studied in the literature.
Note: This is very likely a unique object, which shares a small percentage of members with at least one previously reported entry. See table with shared members information.
