Denobula is a planet and the homeworld of the Denobulan species. Located in the Denobula Triaxa system, the planet has a single large, inhabited continent.
The planet is heavily populated, with approximately twelve billion inhabitants in 2152. (ENT: "The Catwalk") The cities are quite crowded by necessity, though Phlox noted that the atmosphere was "vibrant, communal". (ENT: "Doctor's Orders")
In 2152, Phlox requested information on Pa'nar Syndrome from the Vulcan Doctor Yuris, claiming it was on behalf of a colleague on Denobula studying thymic sclerosis. (ENT: "Stigma")
In 2153, a group of Denobulan scientists studied a system of caves on the planet Xantoras, seeking to avert seismic disasters on Denobula. (ENT: "The Breach")

Background
- Manny Coto has said that if Star Trek: Enterprise had gone into a fifth season, Enterprise would have visited Denobula.
- Presumably, Denobula is a Class M planet, since Phlox and other Denobulans have no difficulties with the atmosphere on board Enterprise.
- There is an actual star called Denebola, thirty-six light years from Earth, in the constellation Leo.
