Overview

â„šī¸
Theia 863 is a moderately populated, very loose object of intermediate C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a close distance, near the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the absorption and metallicity parameters (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature.
