Overview

â„šī¸
UPK 88 is a poorly populated, loose object of intermediate 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, young cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the absorption and metallicity parameters (see Parameters). It is moderately studied in the literature.
