NGC 828 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation of Andromeda. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 5200 ± 17 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 250.2 ± 17.5 Mly (76.70 ± 5.37 Mpc). [1] Additionally, three non-redshift measurements give a distance of 223.52 ± 7.06 Mly (68.533 ± 2.165 Mpc). [2]
