Overview

ℹ️

FSR 1769 is a sparse, very loose object of very low C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a moderate^* distance, above the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as an extremely massive, old cluster (see Parameters). It is poorly studied in the literature.

(*): The parallax distance estimate (~3.14 kpc) differs significantly from the median photometric distance (~5.41 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.

Very distant Moderate extinction Extremely massive Old
