Overview

â„šī¸
Ruprecht 151 is a poorly populated, loose object of high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a relatively close distance, above the mid-plane, affected by low extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the age and metallicity parameters (see Parameters). It is well-studied in the literature.

Palma et al. (2025)
Part of multiple system G236, along with Ruprecht_26, Theia_3581 and HSC_1867.
