Luyten 789-6, also known as EZ Aquarii, was a trinary star system in the Alpha Quadrant. The stars of this system were named EZ Aquarii A, EZ Aquarii B, and EZ Aquarii C. EZ Aquarii A and EZ Aquarii C together formed a binary star system.
Stellar Cartography[]
Luyten 789-6 was visible from Earth in the constellation Aquarius. This system was approximately 11 light years from Sol.
In 2364, the location of Luyten 789-6 was labeled in a star chart of a stellar neighborhood with Sol at the center. This chart was stored in the USS Enterprise-D library computer. Later that year, the chart was scanned by Outpost 63. (TNG: "The Naked Now", production art; TNG: "The Last Outpost")

Background information[]
This star was only mentioned in writing.
This star's quadrant of origin was inferred based on the position of neighboring locations – 61 Cygni, Alpha Centauri, Procyon, Sol, Tau Ceti, and Wolf 359 – as seen in the star charts appearing in the Star Trek: Discovery episode "Magic to Make the Sanest Man Go Mad" and in the Star Trek: Picard episode "Maps and Legends".
This star chart naming stars within twenty light years of Sol was drawn by Rick Sternbach for the Star Trek Spaceflight Chronology (p. 77) in the late 1970s. This chart showed Earth commercial and exploration routes after the use of warp drive began. There were no commercial or exploration routes to this star.
Information on this system was derived from the episodes and real-world sources. The real-world information added to the article was current as of 2025.
For the episode PIC: "Farewell", the anomaly would appear in or near the real world location of EZ Aruarii.
