NGC 3105 (galactic longitude 279.92 deg, latitude +0.28 deg) is confirmed to be a distant young cluster located 5.5 kpc from the sun on the basis of photoelectric photometry of 34 stars. Its mean B-V color excess is 1.08 plus or minus 0.03 (m.e.). The earliest spectral type is B2, making NGC 3105 a useful spiral tracer. It contains six probable supergiants: three red, one yellow, and two blue, one of the latter being confirmed spectroscopically. One of the red supergiants appears to be one component of a red-blue close binary. Three Be stars are also probable members.
