Overview

â„šī¸
OC 0185 is a sparse, very loose object of intermediate C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a close distance, above 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 and mass parameters (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature.

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

âš ī¸ Warning: the low UTI value and no obvious signs of duplication (Cdup=1.0) indicate that this is quite probably an asterism, moving group, or artifact, and not a real open cluster.
