The Trosper was one of the first three starships to arrive at Veridian III following the crash of the USS Enterprise-D in 2371. It was their crew that discovered the visual signal being broadcast by a microtransmitter from Geordi La Forge's VISOR, which had been used by Lursa and B'Etor to penetrate the Enterprise's shields.

Background[]
The Trosper was named in honor of Jennifer Trosper, mission manager for the Spirit rover of the early-21st century Mars Exploration Rover mission. While this wasn't established "in-universe" within the narrative of the SCE eBook: Progress, this information formed part of the book's acknowledgements.
