Overview

ℹ️
Saurer 3 is a rich, very dense object of high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a large distance, above the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as a very massive, near-solar metallicity, old cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the age, metallicity, and mass parameters (see Parameters). It is moderately studied in the literature.
