Overview

â„šī¸
ESO 245 09 is a poorly populated, very loose object of low C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a relatively close distance, well below the mid-plane, affected by low extinction. It is catalogued as an old cluster (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature, with no articles listed in the last 7 years.

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.

Relatively close Low extinction Old
