Veridian was the primary of the Veridian planetary system. This star was located not far from Amargosa. This star was located in the Alpha Quadrant.
In 2371, Dr. Tolian Soran tried to collapse the star using his trilithium weapon, which would have changed the course of the Nexus ribbon to intersect Veridian III. In one alternate timeline, he succeeded and the entire Veridian system was annihilated by the resultant shock wave. However, this timeline was subsequently changed by Captains Jean-Luc Picard and James T. Kirk, who were able to stop Soran. The Veridian system was scanned by the USS Enterprise-D to determine the impact of the star's impending destruction, and Data found that the fourth planet in the Veridian system was host to a pre-industrial sentient species.
