[@RumikoOhara] Where does it say in the OP that the USS Minotaur was an Excelsior class ship?

It doesn't, I was going to reveal that in the first IC post...but it is; may as well put that up now, since now everyone will know. 

The picture in the OP is also of an Excelsior-class, but it's fair enough that that isn't really a clue.
