Overview
ℹī¸
Koposov 43 is a rich, very dense object of high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a large distance, above the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, old cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the mass parameter (see Parameters). It is very well-studied in the literature.

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

Distant Moderate extinction Near-solar metallicity Old
