'''Nelvana III''' is the uninhabited third planet of the [[Nelvana]] system, located in what was the former [[Federation/Romulan Neutral Zone]]. Its surface is barren rock, with no native lifeforms.

In 2366, Nelvana III was the subject of an elaborate ruse perpetrated by the [[Romulan Main Page|Romulan Star Empire]] to expose Admiral Alidar Jarok as a traitor and to provoke the Federation into violating the Neutral Zone. Through deliberate misinformation, Jarok was led to believe that the Empire had established a cloaked base on Nelvana III in preparation for a preemptive strike against the Federation. Faced with the prospect of war, Jarok defected to the Federation to warn them of the attack. To enhance the deception, the Empire placed a probe in orbit of Nelvana III that emitted low-level subspace signals. When the USS Enterprise-D arrived in orbit, Romulan warbirds de-cloaked and revealed the trap, but the Enterprise was able to withdraw with help from hidden [[Klingon]] reinforcements.
