Overview

â„šī¸
FoF 436 is a rich, very dense object of very high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a moderate* distance, above the mid-plane, affected by high extinction. It is catalogued as a massive, near-solar metallicity, intermediate-age cluster (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature.

(*): The parallax distance estimate (~3.56 kpc) differs significantly from the median photometric distance (~2.68 kpc).

Note: This object shares a small percentage of members with a later reported entry. See table with shared members information.

Relatively close High extinction Massive Near-solar metallicity Intermediate age
