Extended Data Fig. 2: Favourite orbital solutions for the C-19 stream.

From: A stellar stream remnant of a globular cluster below the metallicity floor

Extended Data Fig. 2

The dashed line shows the orbit of C-19 constrained using the proper motions (red symbols in a, b) of C-19 members identified by STREAMFINDER, their Gaia parallaxes (c), their radial velocities when available (d) and their location on the sky compared with the distribution of extinction45 (e). The orbit determined without using the Gaia parallax information but instead anchoring the distance at 18 kpc is represented by the dotted line. f, g The two orbits, integrated for ±1 Gyr, projected on the Galactic plane, and in the Rz plane. The thick red lines correspond to the part of the orbits that overlaps the observed C-19 member stars.
