Spaceflight Chronology starchart 1 — The location of Ross 248 on a star chart

Located less than twenty light years from Sol, Ross 248 was a star in the Alpha Quadrant.

On several occasions in 2364, viewscreen readouts aboard the USS Enterprise-D showed the location of Ross 248 in the form of star charts from the Enterprise library computer. (TNG: "The Naked Now", "The Last Outpost", "Conspiracy")

This star was located in the Andromeda constellation.

This star chart naming stars within 20 light years of Sol was drawn by Rick Sternbach for the Star Trek Spaceflight Chronology in the late 1970s. Found on page 77, this chart showed Earth commercial and exploration routes after the use of warp drive began. There were no commercial or exploration routes to this system. The stars Alpha Centauri, Sol, Sirius, and Tau Ceti were identified on "The Explored Galaxy" wall chart as being located in the Alpha Quadrant..
