Overview

â„šī¸
UBC 312 is a rich, very dense object of very high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a moderate distance, near the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as a metal-poor, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the metallicity parameter (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature.
