Overview

â„šī¸
UBC 551 is a very rich, very dense object of very high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a relatively close distance, below the mid-plane, affected by high extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, old cluster (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature.

Note: This object contains blue stragglers according to at least one source.

Note: This is likely a unique object, which shares a moderate percentage of members with at least one previously reported entry. See table with shared members information.
