The Wishing Well Cluster (NGC 3532) is a bright open cluster located approximately 1,321 light-years away in the southern constellation Carina. It has an apparent magnitude of 3 and is one of the finest telescope targets in the southern sky. NGC 3532 is situated south of the celestial equator and, as such, it is more easily visible from the southern hemisphere.
