The USS Cochrane (NCC-59318) was a Federation Oberth-class (Sagan-subclass) scout in service to Starfleet in the mid to late 24th century. She was named in honor of the space pioneer Zefram Cochrane who invented the Terran warp drive. (ST reference: Star Trek Encyclopedia, TNG roleplay module: Star Trek: The Next Generation Officer's Manual)

The role-playing supplement Officer's Manual states this starship, with a registry of NCC-20005, was commissioned on reference stardate 2/8805.

In 2366, the Cochrane performed a survey of the planet Eloh, using only unmanned space probes, so as to avoid being visible to Elohsian technology, which was at a 20th century level of advancement. The Cochrane found the Elohsian world to be severely damaged by an ongoing military conflict. (TNG novel: The Romulan Stratagem)

In the late 2360s, the Cochrane was assigned to transport personnel to the USS Enterprise on two separate occassions. In late 2367, she transported retired Admiral Norah Satie to the Enterprise to investigate suspected espionage. Early the following year, Cochrane also transported Wesley Crusher to the Enterprise while he was on shore leave. (TNG episodes: "The Drumhead", "The Game")

In 2369, the Cochrane transported several Starfleet officers, including Julian Bashir and Jadzia Dax, to Deep Space 9. (DS9 episode: "Emissary", ST reference: Star Trek Encyclopedia)

In mid-2372, the Cochrane was ordered to transport dignataries from various Federation planets to Earth so that they could discuss the rising threat from the Dominion. Shortly after, she transported Nev Reoh and Starsa to Oppalassa and came under attack by Klingon warships. (TNG novel: The Best and the Brightest)

In 2374, the Cochrane reported numerous crew casualties from fighting in the Dominion War. (DS9 episode: "In the Pale Moonlight")
