Overview

â„šī¸
MWSC 5044 is a poorly populated, very dense object of intermediate C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a very close* distance, above the mid-plane, affected by low extinction. It is catalogued as an old cluster (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature.

(*): The parallax distance estimate (~0.41 kpc) differs significantly from the median photometric distance (~2.73 kpc).
