In Simbad CDS, gives the designation for NGC2136/2137 as a binary
cluster of stars.
There is a good program called Aladin that will give you lots of
info and can link you to Simbad,CDS

Thank you Ron. Yeah I've noticed this, I wonder why globular clusters in LMC and SMC are called open clusters? Thanks for info regarding Aladdin and Simbad! Clear skies to you 🙂
