Overview
UBC 1524 is a moderately populated, dense object of very high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a moderate distance, below the mid-plane, affected by high extinction. It is catalogued as a massive, near-solar metallicity, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the metallicity parameter (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature.
