Overview

â„šī¸
FSR 1709 is a sparse, very loose object of intermediate C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a very large* distance, below the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as an intermediate-age cluster (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature.

(*): The parallax distance estimate (~11.64 kpc) differs significantly from the median photometric distance (~1.89 kpc).

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.

Morales et al. (2013)
Classified as morphological type 'OC2' (totally exposed cluster without correlation with ATLASGAL emission). Morphological flag: one or a few submm emission within the cluster area.
