I have not seen the ship on screen. I remember seeing the original Excelsior appearing on screen when it first appeared on screen in the Search for Spock and hoped that it would replace the Enterprise in the next movie. Don’t get me wrong I like the Constitution class but the Excelsior class is the natural successor to the line.
Below I have generated a new starship that fits into the time and with any era.
The two noted ships USS Eureka NCC-42023 and the USS Excelsior NCC-42037. The information I used came solely from https://www.ex-astris-scientia.org. I thought about it and worked on the design and came up with the following ship.
