Overview

â„šī¸
UPK 612 is a moderately populated, very dense object of high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a very close distance, near the mid-plane, affected by low extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the metallicity parameter (see Parameters). It is moderately studied in the literature.
Very close Low extinction Near-solar metallicity Intermediate age
