Overview
UBC 555 is a moderately populated, very dense object of very high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a relatively close distance, near the mid-plane, affected by high extinction. It is catalogued as a massive, metal-rich, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the distance parameter (see Parameters). It is poorly studied in the literature.
Note: This object shares a significant percentage of members with a later reported entry. See table with shared members information.
