Denali Station is a Federation base, manned by Starfleet and Civilian personnel, within a city discovered abandoned on the surface of [[Ring 42]] within the [[Aavaro Wilds]].  The City itself lies mostly unexplored, and while some functions seem familiar, with roads and buildings seemingly laid out for offices or other mundane tasks, others seem alien and baffling to the crew even as they attempt to make it their own.

Ring 42 was discovered on stardate 239702.11<ref>[[If_This_Goes_On..._(USS_Eagle)]]</ref>.  Orbiting Dialran, a G-Type star, the ring has a diameter of approximately 2 AU, occupying the orbit of a typical M-Class planet (So, roughly the same diameter as the Earth's orbit from the sun). Designed with its inner surface facing the star, the Ring boasts a livable area of approximately 24,000 times that of typical class M planets.

While largely unexplored, initial surface scans and surveys have given the Starfleet crews some general impressions to work with. The city is roughly rectangular covering 55 square kilometers and, assuming certain norms of population density, was designed for 2.2 million people<ref>roughly the population density of 21st Century Hong Kong</ref>.  Denali is located along the shore of an ocean on its spinward <ref name="spinward">east</ref> side, and mostly mountains along the anti-spinward <ref name="anti-spinward">west</ref> side. A wide river, colloquially named Yoonotha River by station inhabitants, is crossable by multiple foot and vehicular bridges and separates a majority of the city from the research facility discovered by previous Starfleet crews.<ref>[[Finders_Keepers_(Juneau)]]</ref>
