Sci fi RPG systems (lemmy.ca)

Looking to recreate the feel of Firefly, The Outer Worlds, The Expanse, or similar, in a ttrpg that is somewhat leaning to the hard sci fi side. Any thoughts?

I've been poking Traveller but it's hard to tell what the definitive versions are. Also Stars Without Number looks interesting.

I'm particularly looking for ship based stuff -- where the ship is statted and you can have ship to ship combat.

Ah, yet another PbtA sci fi game. Between it and Impulse Drive (from another comment), I have some reading to do. Appreciate the recommendation :)
