NGC 1858
NGC 1858 (also known as ESO 56-SC74) is a bright, large, irregular open cluster and emission nebula. It is found in the Dorado constellation. It is located in the Large Magellanic Cloud. It was first discovered by James Dunlop on August 3, 1826 and was first recorded as Dunlop 120. John Herschel recorded it on Nov 2, 1834.
