Overview
UBC 273 is a poorly populated, moderately dense object of high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a moderate distance, near the mid-plane, affected by low extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, young cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the age parameter (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature.
Note: This object shares a large percentage of members with 2 later reported entries. See table with shared members information.
