The USS Trial (NCC-1948) was a Federation Miranda-class starship that was in service with Starfleet in the late 24th century.

In early 2372, the Trial, accompanied by the USS Venture and two unnamed Excelsior class starship, were part of Admiral Hastur's task force that relieved Deep Space 9 following the first Battle of Deep Space 9. The ship later docked at the station after the Klingon withdrawal. (DS9: "The Way of the Warrior")

It would return to visit Deep Space 9 again in 2373. (DS9: "Doctor Bashir, I Presume")

The Trial later fought in the Dominion War, and would take part in Benjamin Sisko's fleet assigned to retake Deep Space 9. It was one of the first starships to arrive at the station after the Dominion withdrawal. (DS9: "Sacrifice of Angels")
