Overview

ℹ️

Ruprecht 169 is a poorly populated, very loose object of very low C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a moderate^* distance, near the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as an old cluster (see Parameters). It is poorly studied in the literature, with no articles listed in the last 8 years.

(*): The parallax distance estimate (~2.82 kpc) differs significantly from the median photometric distance (~1.39 kpc).

Relatively close Moderate extinction Old

Morales et al. (2013)
Classified as morphological type 'OC2' (totally exposed cluster without correlation with ATLASGAL emission). Morphological flag: exposed cluster, without submm emission.
