Ross 154 was a star located about 9.7 light years from Sol.
On several occasions in 2364, viewscreen readouts aboard the USS Enterprise-D showed the location of Ross 154, in the form of charts from the Enterprise-D library computer. (TNG: "The Naked Now", "The Last Outpost", "Conspiracy")
Background
The Enterprise computer's star chart was a drawing by Rick Sternbach that had originally been published, years earlier, on page 77 of the non-canon reference book Spaceflight Chronology. This chart showed Earth commercial and exploration routes after the use of warp drive began. Ross 154 was not a destination on any of the routes.
Ross 154 is a real star in the Sagittarius constellation. Modern scientists have determined it is spectral class M3.5V.
