astro.wikisort.org - StarBlanco 1 (ζ Sculptoris cluster) is a nearby open cluster of stars located around 850 light years away from the Sun in the southern constellation of Sculptor near the star ζ Sculptoris. It was discovered by Puerto Rican astronomer Víctor Manuel Blanco in 1949,[1] who noticed an unusually high proportion of A-type stars in an area spanning 1.5°.[2] This cluster is relatively young, with an age of about 100–150 million years. It is positioned at a high galactic latitude of b = –79.3° and is located some 780 ly (240 pc) below the galactic plane.
Star cluster in the constellation of Sculptor
Blanco 1 contains approximately 300 stars, around 170 of these being brighter than magnitude +12,[3] the brightest of which is HD 225187, a 7th-magnitude B8V star. It has a cross-sectional magnitudal density of about 30 per square parsec: less than half that of the Pleiades cluster. Of the confirmed members, eight have been found to radiate an excess of infrared energy, indicating that they host orbiting debris disks.[4] Roughly half the stars in the cluster are members of binary star systems; six of the member stars are confirmed spectroscopic binaries.[5] A system known as NGTS J0002-29 is a triple system that contains one of only a few well-characterised eclipsing binaries with two red dwarfs: they orbit each other with a period of 1.098 days.[6] There are also some 30–40 brown dwarf members.[1]

Бланко 1 (англ. Blanco 1) — рассеянное звёздное скопление, расположенное в 850 световых годах от Солнца в созвездии Скульптора. Скопление открыл пуэрто-риканский астроном Виктор Мануэль Бланко (Víctor Manuel Blanco) в 1949 году,[1] заметивший необычно высокую долю звёзд спектрального класса A в области протяжённостью 1,5°.
[3] Скопление является относительно молодым, его возраст составляет 100-150 млн лет. Скопление расположено в высоких галактических широтах: галактическая широта равна −79,3°, что соответствует расстоянию около 780 световых лет (240 пк) от плоскости галактики.
