Abstract

We present a creation of the HR-Diagram of NGC 3532 with the age and distance of the cluster, along with some other components of our cluster, including the space velocity of our star and several organized plots of our data. We used data from SIMBAD to create, first of all, a color-color diagram, which we then used isochrone fitting technique to find the distance. Then, using the color-color diagram, we created the HR-Diagram, and found the age using its turnoff point. Our calculations found that the distance was around 416.87 parsecs, and the age was around 328.7 million years old. We also used data from GAIA, which we used to find some of the components we needed for the space velocity of our star. Overall, this research will add important information onto this cluster, as the data on this cluster is relatively lacking compared to clusters like M12, mainly because clusters that are nearby us are usually more researched on. The numbers we get from this study will come to aid other researchers when doing calculations on this cluster.
