No other way to describe it. I first noticed this in the Romulan exploration zones. For kicks I went into the zone off of the Borg sector last night and had the same thing happen. Which is frustrating as when my bridge officers do it it's annoying but when the enemies do it it prevents me from completing the mission. The kick in the pants is that sometimes they can fire on you but you can't fire on them. Kinda like Birds of prey stuck in Asteroids in other missions which I ran into again still in the first part of the Fed minefield mission. There's a couple of squads at the entry of the zone (which don't count for your mission count by the way) that usually has 1 BOP stuck in an asteroid and can shoot you for like 15K or so.
After I ran into it on multiple Romulan missions I'd given up on ground exploration. But thought I'd give it a go again and ran into the same problem again.

When I land on a planet that is sandy colored with hilly terrain, odds of this happening seem to go up.
This hasn't been much of an issue for me since season two was released. They've obviously broken things again. I'm having trouble setting other player's info to mouse over also.
