Overview

ℹ️

NGC 3603 is a very rich, very dense object of high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a large distance, below the mid-plane, affected by high extinction. It is catalogued as a very massive, near-solar metallicity, very young cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the distance and age parameters (see Parameters). It is well-studied in the literature.

Very distant High extinction Very massive Near-solar metallicity Very young
