Overview

â„šī¸
Czernik 15 is a moderately populated, dense object of high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a moderate distance, below the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, young cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the metallicity and mass parameters (see Parameters). It is moderately studied in the literature.
