About NGC 4914
NGC 4914 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation of Canes Venatici. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 4,816±22 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 231.7 ± 16.3 Mly (71.04 ± 4.99 Mpc). However, three non-redshift measurements give a much closer mean distance of 111.76 ± 21.42 Mly (34.267 ± 6.567 Mpc). It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel on 17 March 1787.
