I was thinking as a novel.

Sure, but I'm okay with him coming back as Yet Another Android as long as the android isn't Data.
I thought you were talking about the conclusion of the third season of Picard. If the series dropped a hint that Kirk is actually alive, that's an awfully big Chekhov's Gun for it to leave unfired.
Dave Blass has posted a full accounting of all the ships at the museum on Twitter and Instagram.
Interestingly, the Miranda-class is revealed to be a reproduction. It's the Saratoga NCC-1887 from TVH, which was brought out of mothballs and refurbished and repainted to represent the Saratoga NCC-31911 from DS9. It's the only ship given a backstory in this group of artwork, but it opens the door for any of the other ships to also be reproductions (as is frequently the case with classic aircraft, where the surviving examples are often painted in the liveries of more notable planes than the ones that actually were late enough off the assembly line or in obscure enough jobs to avoid being destroyed or scrapped), so One Constant Star and The Ashes of Eden might be back on the table, and the Excelsior-class and/or Constitution-refit at the museum might be substitutions and aren't actually NCC-2000 and NCC-1701-A.

This brings to mind Michael Jan Friedman's Crossover. The museum ship Scotty stole was identified as the Yorktown, but the bridge was actually that of the pre-refit Enterprise. I also think of my friend who's a conservator at Udvar-Hazy -- he worked on the Enterprise filming model restoration -- and some of the projects he's worked on, where they have parts from from one airplane and parts of a different airplane of the same model and class, and they're trying to assemble it into a whole.
...David, you magnificent bastard. Fantastic find. This just made my whole week.
I'm not really sure this counts as a lit tie-in, but a Vulcan ship in episode 7 used the "VSS" prefix, just like the Vulcan ships did in Killing Time. I doubt this is a deliberate Killing Time reference, and is most likely just a case of two different people coming up with the same thing independently (and really, it's kind of a natural if you're going for "Vulcan Star Ship" or whatever), but I think this is the first time this prefix has ever appeared in an episode, so I figured I'd mention it.
I love it.
Outside of literature, STO uses VS for a few Vulcan ships but otherwise VSS. The Voth use VSS as well.
I thought the context from the quote above my spoiler tag was obvious. Sorry.
I suppose it was logically foreshadowed (post-shadowed?) by DIS 4.05 introducing the N.S.S. T'Pau.
Just wondering about what happened with the Celiar and the origin of the Borg after Coda 
Presumably, the Caeliar did their thing without being visited by (either Columbia NX-02 and) the Titan. Borg may have arisen in many ways and many times. So far, the canon hasn’t touched the origin of the Borg, so the past events of Destiny still stand.Just wondering about what happened with the Celiar and the origin of the Borg after Coda
Yeah, for now were safe. But in the case we eventually get another Borg origin story without the Caeliar, i have trouble imagining another Borg collective arising with exactly the same technical specifications, having the same vessels, the same designations and acting 100 percently the same as in the first splinter timeline...
Didn't Doctor Who do the exact same thing with the Cybermen? Still doesn't make sense but still...
Convergent evolution.
Or cross-pollination between timelines.
The Saturn V at Kennedy Space Center is like that. It's not all pieces from a single production Saturn V. It's pieced together.
She was Captain of the Exeter, then briefly the Excalibur A, and then the Trident, and then got promoted to Admiral and placed in command of Starbase Bravo and I think that's where she was last in about 2381
