The second-brightest star in the constellation Leo, located about 36 light-years from Earth.
From Arabic 'dhanab al-asad' meaning 'tail of the lion', describing this star's position at the tail end of the Leo constellation in ancient astronomical charts.
Denebola's name contains the same Arabic root 'dhanab' (tail) as Deneb in Cygnus—astronomers loved naming stars by which body parts they represented on their constellation creatures!
