MISC began developing the Prospector in 2910 as an extension of the Freelancer project. With their success in survey and fire suppression, MISC was looking to expand the use of its chassis. With that aim in mind, MISC wrote off nine Freelancers which were utilized by the StarCitizen:Cold Boot team to develop as they saw fit.<ref name="ProspectorWG">Script error: No such module "Cite RSI".</ref> |-|
The Miner=
The Prospector would go on to be the third ship project of the Cold Boot team, and in early phases was dubbed "The Miner." However, with little anticipated need for small scale mining ships, "The Miner" was an unlikely candidate to be adopted by MISC. By StarCitizen:2914 two conversion attempts had failed. The first prototype as an unsightly and ungainly beast, and pushed the boundaries of the teams budget. Twenty-six test flights later, the team had a large enough success that their program was allowed to continue. "The Miner" would have four prototype designs, the A-1, A-2, A-3, and finally the B-1. Over the course of the next eight years, MISC-HI teams would work on developing a hull for the ship, while a second team would develop a miniaturized mining array that could be stored within the ship's fuselage.<ref name="ProspectorWG"/> |-|
Launch=
In StarCitizen:2923 the ship would finally be named "The Prospector" and would see extending time in jump tunnel situations and live testing. The ship would be unveiled the next year at the StarCitizen:2924 StarCitizen:Intergalactic Aerospace Expo. Shortly after the ships launch in StarCitizen:2925 MISC would see its stock prices hit rock bottom and stay there for the next two years. This however, would not be the end of MISC. With new reports coming out of a massive discovery of previously ignored raw materials on StarCitizen:Ferron II.<ref name="ProspectorWG"/> |-|
Ferron system discovery=
Chloe Raznick was an owner and operator of one of the first 2925 MISC Prospectors off the assembly line. She had made the legal purchase of several hundred parcels of former military ground testing area on Ferron II in the hopes of salvaging expended shells and claiming the small bounties on radioactive debris collection. While in the process of surveying her lot, she discovered a deep chasm into which she navigated her Prospector. There she came across what is now known as the 'Chessex Lode'. A massive discovery of previously ignored raw materials which made a her fortune. Within days of the discovery, Prospector sales shot through the roof as people rushed to try their hands at this new career.<ref name="ProspectorWG"/> </tabber>
