Along the same lines as the OPs question:
Does anyone know of any game that attempts to have a Star Trek feel (quasi-millitary starship exploration based game) but isn't actually a licenced Star Trek product? Something Star Trek-like?
The Fantasy Games Unlimited RPG Starships and Spacemen had this feel and it was certainly possible to get such a vibe from FGUs Space Opera as well (since the universe was a blatant rip-off...er...heartfelt homage to Star Trek and Star Wars complete with a UFP and Jedi/Lensmen). I've run Traveller Scout/Exploration campaign, a Trek-like Star Frontiers game and of course my own personal homebrew Galaxy Quest. A number of other SciFi RPGs have and/or can duplicate the Star Trek atmosphere of a para-military organization boldly going where no one has gone before.
