Overview

â„šī¸
NGC 1333 is a rich, very dense object of very high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a very close distance, below the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, very young cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the absorption parameter (see Parameters). It is moderately studied in the literature.

Note: This object shares a significant percentage of members with 3 later reported entries. See table with shared members information.
