Outpost 5 was an outpost constructed on an asteroid by Starfleet in 2160. This outpost was one of eight Earth Outpost Stations located in Sector Z-6 on the Federation side of the Romulan Neutral Zone. (TOS: "Balance of Terror", display graphic)

In 2293, the location of the Neutral Zone in the Milky Way Galaxy was depicted on the Federation star chart The Explored Galaxy. This chart was first seen on aboard the starship USS Enterprise-A. In the 2360s, the chart was seen again at Starfleet Headquarters on Earth, aboard the USS Enterprise-D, in a courtroom in the Starfleet outpost Starbase 173, and in a classroom on the space station Deep Space Nine. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country; TNG: "Conspiracy", "The Measure Of A Man", "Emissary"; DS9: "In the Hands of the Prophets")

The location of Outpost 5 was depicted on a tactical intelligence analysis in 2366. (TNG: "The Defector", display graphic)

Background information

Outpost 5 was never mentioned in dialog; the name comes from star charts seen in "Balance of Terror" and "The Defector".
