Overview

ℹ️

Dutra-Bica 24 is a sparse, very loose object of low C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a very large^* distance, well below the mid-plane, affected by very high extinction. It is catalogued as an intermediate-age cluster (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature, with no articles listed in the last 10 years.

(*): The parallax distance estimate (~23.81 kpc) differs significantly from the median photometric distance (~2.29 kpc).

⚠️ Warning: the low UTI value and no obvious signs of duplication (C_dup=1.0) indicate that this is quite probably an asterism, moving group, or artifact, and not a real open cluster.
