NGC 6670 is a pair of interacting galaxies also known as Arp 119, located in the constellation Draco. The system shows distorted shapes and tidal tails, indicating an ongoing gravitational interaction between its two components. It was entered into the New General Catalogue compiled by John Louis Emil Dreyer in the late 19th century, based on earlier observations. Spectroscopic measurements give the object a redshift of approximately z ≈ 0.032, which corresponds to a distance of several hundred million light‑years under the usual Hubble‑flow assumption.
