Overview
UBC 1566 is a moderately populated, very dense object of high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a moderate distance, near the mid-plane, affected by high extinction. It is catalogued as a massive, extremely metal-poor, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the distance parameter (see Parameters). It is poorly studied in the literature.
