Overview

â„šī¸
CWNU 459 is a poorly populated, very loose object of high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a moderate distance, near the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as a massive, metal-rich, young cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the metallicity parameter (see Parameters). It is poorly studied in the literature.

Note: This is a unique object, which shares a very small percentage of members with at least one previously reported entry. See table with shared members information.
