Desta is a planet located in the Balrosh system in the galaxy's Alpha or Beta Quadrant. It is the homeworld of the humanoid Destans.
History
Hytarans and Nuofons believed that the Destans had migrated from Desta to another star system. However, at the very least, a space fleet remained on Desta in the 2260s.
In 2266, a fleet of Destan spaceships launched from Desta to engage the USS Enterprise over Nuofo. Another fleet, appearing to be Hytaran spaceships, may also have been launched from Desta. (TOS comic: "The Third Party")
