Overview

â„šī¸
CWNU 3879 is a sparse, loose object of very low C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a large* distance, above the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as an intermediate-age cluster (see Parameters). It was recently reported in the literature.

(*): The parallax distance estimate (~5.43 kpc) differs significantly from the median photometric distance (~3.72 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.
