Overview

â„šī¸
HSC 87 is a poorly populated, very dense object of very high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a relatively close distance, near the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the metallicity parameter (see Parameters). It was recently reported in the literature.
Relatively close Moderate extinction Near-solar metallicity Intermediate age
