'''Esperia Incorporation''' is a [[StarCitizen:Human]] spacecraft manufacturer that adapts, reproduces, and sells existing xeno spacecraft and weapon designs. The company was founded in [[StarCitizen:2873]] by [[StarCitizen:Jovi Ingstrom|Jovi]] and [[StarCitizen:Theo Ingstrom]], brothers interested in preserving spacecraft-building history. Apart from manufacturing [[StarCitizen:Alien vehicles|alien vessels]], the company also funds several [[StarCitizen:xenoarchaeology]] research grants through the [[StarCitizen:University of Rhetor]].

The United Empire of Earth Navy (UEEN) makes use of Esperia's replica spacecraft for testing and for aggressor training their combat pilots.<ref name="galactapedia">{{Cite RSI|url=https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/0OaBKL7wlv-esperia|text=Galactapedia: Esperia}}</ref>

== Operations ==
=== Ship manufacturing ===
Esperia has always stayed true to the original experience of the ship; that was the tenet established by the lngstrom brothers when Esperia first branched into ship reproduction. Esperia's [[StarCitizen:astroengineers]] are not allowed to diverge from the original construction method when it changes the experience of the ship, even though ship construction techniques might have made significant advances in efficiency, safety, and aesthetics since the time that the original design was first introduced.<ref name="manual-prowler"/>

==== Prowler ====
Esperia began with the reproduction of the [[StarCitizen:Prowler]] after an original Tevarin Prowler ship were found on the abandoned planet [[StarCitizen:Kabal III]] in 2941. Esperia were contracted by the UEE to assess the technology and reproduction of it with newer technology.<ref name="manual-prowler"/>

=== Ship schematics archive ===
Esperia has a digital archive dedicated for archiving original ship blueprints of spaceships due to the founders' obsession with them.<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=comm-link/transmission/16237-November-2947-Subscriber-Flair|text=November 2947 Subscriber Flair}}</ref>

=== Xenoarchaeology research ===
The [[StarCitizen:lngstrom Fellowship]] selects eight recipients a year for their work in the advancement in the field of xenoarchaeology.

== History ==
=== Founding ===
Esperia was started by [[StarCitizen:Jovi Ingstrom|Jovi]] and [[StarCitizen:Theo lngstrom]], two brothers who were obsessed with spaceflight while growing up on [[StarCitizen:Terra (planet)|Terra]]. As they tried to learn all' they could, these two brothers realized that only a fraction of ship designs managed to be passed down through the centuries. While there were many ships that never saw production runs, that didn't mean that there weren't any kernels of good ideas in the designs.<ref name="manual-prowler">{{Cite RSI|url=media/dy3ea8fjrv3imr/source/Prowler-Manual-1980x1020v2.pdf|text=Esperia Prowler Manual v2}}</ref> Created in 2873, Esperia was initially conceived as a repository for these lost ship blueprints, in the hopes that current ship engineers could be inspired by the missteps of the past. The business exploded, and it wasn't long before the brothers decided to try and build their first ship based off one of the long lost designs.<ref name="manual-prowler"/>

Since then, Esperia has expanded its manufacturing arm to build ships not only for private collectors, but for military training exercises. It provided xeno-spacecraft reproductions for the [[StarCitizen:UEE]] military.

=== Conflict with Vanduul ===
{{Quote|The [[StarCitizen:Vanduul War]] is not some distant threat, to paraphrase [[StarCitizen:Ernst Bishop|Admiral Bishop]]: it is at our door. [[StarCitizen:Vega system|Vega]]. Now [[StarCitizen:Oberon system|Oberon]]. Who knows what system could be struck next? [[StarCitizen:Citizen]]s and [[StarCitizen:civilian]]s need to be able to protect themselves against the [[StarCitizen:Vanduul]], and they need to be able to do it now before it's too late. I am thrilled that Esperia has the ability to facilitate this important effort. These [[StarCitizen:Blade (replica)|Blade]] light fighters are not only effective defensive tools, but more importantly, they are ready and available for purchase today.|Esperia CEO [[StarCitizen:Charlotte Hussion]]}}
