Denkir II

Denkir II was the second planet in the Denkir system. The planet was located somewhere in the Alpha or Beta Quadrant.

Visual art

A painting was created in the 24th century to depict Denkir II from the perspective of its moon. Copies of the painting were distributed and used on aboard Federation starships, including the USS Enterprise. On the Enterprise, these were displayed in the living quarters. (TNG: "The Naked Now", "Lonely Among Us", "The Outrageous Okona", "Peak Performance", "Suddenly Human")

Background information

The painting, and another, were created by Rick Sternbach while writing a non-Trek related SF story and later provided by him when set artwork was needed. [1] It is unclear if a real Denkir II existed, though if it did it might be related to the Denkir depicted on some maps or to any of several other things also called "Denkir". The painting might even depict something entirely differently, or might be named differently, in-universe.

A copy of this painting was first seen in Beverly Crusher's quarters in "The Naked Now". It was also seen Jean-Luc Picard's quarters in "Suddenly Human", "Legacy", "Devil's Due", and "Qpid". In William T. Riker's quarters in "Lonely Among Us", Worf's quarters in "Peak Performance" and "Redemption", and in B.G. Robinson's quarters in "The Outrageous Okona". [2]
