Deneva

Deneva

Deneva (or Deneva Prime) is a planet where the Human Deneva colony was situated. The planet became colonized by the 2150s, having been operating for "over a century" in 2267, as a freighting line base for mining in the sector's asteroid belt. (TOS: "Operation -- Annihilate!")

Earth Cargo Service vessels were making runs to the colony in 2153. (ENT: "Horizon")

Its grottoes were mentioned by Subcommander T'Pol as being similar to that of Dakala, a rogue planet discovered by the crew of Enterprise NX-01 in 2151. (ENT: "Rogue Planet")

Montgomery Scott worked in this freighting line as an engineering adviser early in his career.

In late 2266 – eight months before the visit of the USS Enterprise – space vessels from Ingraham B brought an infestation of neural parasites. These parasites would have wiped out the colony, as they had Ingraham B and at least three other civilized worlds, had not Captain Kirk and his crew destroyed them. Many people died from the infestation, including Kirk's brother Sam, just before the arrival of the Enterprise, and his wife Aurelan, soon after. The couple had moved to the planet with their son Peter not long before the infestation. (TOS: "Operation -- Annihilate!")

Denevan crystals seem to originate from the planet. (DS9: "The Sound of Her Voice")
