Overview

â„šī¸
HSC 1240 is a sparse, very loose object of low C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a close distance, near the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as a metal-poor, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the metallicity parameter (see Parameters). It was recently reported in the literature.

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.

Cavallo et al. (2024)
Gold sample.

Hunt & Reffert (2024)
Classified as a moving group.
