I want to know any open clusters which we don't know a lot about.

Open clusters of which we don't know about the:

  • chemical composition
  • ratio of no. of stars in front vs back tidal trail

    $\begingroup$ If the number of objects is nearly infinite, lists work only for the complement: you can only compile lists of what is known - but not of what is not known as such lists would be infinitely large. $\endgroup$ Commented Nov 24, 2022 at 7:26

    $\begingroup$ I am not talking about listing all the objects that we don't know. I am talking about the objects that we know the existence of but have not enough information about. $\endgroup$ Commented Nov 24, 2022 at 7:29

    $\begingroup$ Is there any object we have enough information about? Who is the judge of this question? The answer obviously depends on the question(s) you want to ask your set of data $\endgroup$ Commented Nov 24, 2022 at 7:42

    $\begingroup$ I don't feel like playing a game of semantics right now. You know that I mean "objects that we literally know little about compared to say the Sun or Orion Nebula". I know, language is a word game but sometimes we have to use our shared human intuition to understand each other when bringing up subjective terms like "little", "obscure" etc $\endgroup$ Commented Nov 24, 2022 at 7:44

    $\begingroup$ Lawrence, planetmaker has a very good point. This is entirely opinion-based. Every study group has their preferred ones that not enough is known about. I think you need to update your question with context and the assumptions you want to make. It's not semantics, it's trying to reduce from any answer, to one that is valuable to you. $\endgroup$
