Overview

â„šī¸
CWNU 521 is a poorly populated, very loose object of high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a close* distance, above the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as a metal-poor, very young cluster (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature.

(*): The parallax distance estimate (~0.92 kpc) differs significantly from the median photometric distance (~0.66 kpc).

Note: This object shares a large percentage of members with at least one entry reported in the same catalogue. See table with shared members information.

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.
