Overview

ℹ️

NGC 6743 is a sparse, very loose object of very low C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a large^* distance, well above the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as a massive, intermediate-age cluster (see Parameters). It is poorly studied in the literature.

(*): The parallax distance estimate (~7.46 kpc) differs significantly from the median photometric distance (~2.22 kpc).

Relatively close Moderate extinction Massive Intermediate age
