Not quite the same, but I'm reminded of the short lived show "Salvage 1", starring Andy Griffith [1]

Interesting, I hate that these types of shows appear to be lost to the ages. I can't find it to buy (there are a handful of episodes available for purchase on DVD on Amazon for something like $17/per) and I don't see it come up on streaming services either.

I loved that show when I was a kid. The science was pretty bad, but the stories were great.

In that case you might be interested in Hardspace: Shipbreaker[1] game which is currently in early access. There are some gameplay videos already, for example Scott Manley's[2].

One of my all-time favourite sci-fi shows. The setting manages to mix the banal and the excitement of space so well.
