Overview
CWNU 37 is a poorly populated, loose object of intermediate C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a moderate distance, near the mid-plane, affected by high extinction. It is catalogued as a massive, near-solar metallicity, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the age and metallicity parameters (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature.
Note: This object contains blue stragglers according to at least one source.
