NGC{{nbsp}}664 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation of Pisces. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 5137 ± 21{{nbsp}}km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of {{convert|75.77 ± 5.31|Mpc|Mly|abbr=on|lk=on|order=flip}}. In addition, six non redshift measurements give a closer distance of {{convert|67.117 ± 1.123|Mpc|Mly|abbr=on|order=flip}}.{{cite web | url = https://ned.ipac.caltech.edu/cgi-bin/nDistance?name=NGC+664 | title = Distance Results for NGC{{nbsp}}664 | website = NASA/IPAC EXTRAGALACTIC DATABASE | publisher = NASA | access-date = 22 August 2024}} It was discovered by British astronomer John Herschel on 24 September 1830.{{cite web | url = https://cseligman.com/text/atlas/ngc6a.htm#664 | title = NGC{{nbsp}}664 | last = Seligman | first = Courtney | website = Celestial Atlas | access-date = 22 August 2024 }}
