Nausicaa was the homeworld of the Nausicaan species.
In 2151, Matthew Ryan suggested that, if Enterprise NX-01 delivered a Nausicaan prisoner back to Nausicaa, the Nausicaans would probably award the returned captive with a medal. (ENT: "Fortunate Son")
In the first draft script of "Fortunate Son", Admiral Forrest notified Captain Archer that Starfleet had filed a complaint with Nausicaa, regarding Nausicaan pirates operating in a particular sector of space, but that the Nausicaan government was, according to the Vulcans, in a constant mode of "transition."
According to Star Trek: Star Charts (pp. 60 & 64), Nausicaa was located in the Nausicaa system, in the Beta Quadrant. This system was a binary star system. Primary star was a Class M star with a magnitude of +3, which was ten times brighter than Sol. Secondary was a Class A star. In the mid-22nd century, this system was in non-aligned space. In the late 24th century, this system was located in or near Federation space.
According to the RPG sourcebook Planets of the UFP, Nausicaa was the third planet in its system.
