LHS 292 is a red dwarf star in the constellation Sextans.

It is far too faint to be seen with the unaided eye and requires a large amateur telescope to be seen visually.

It lies relatively close to the Solar System at a distance of about 14.9 light-years.

It is a flare star, which means it can suddenly increase in brightness for short periods of time.
