Oh very much so. Traveller was originally released shortly after the
first Star Wars Movie (now called Episode IV), and had that movie's pulp
spirit at heart.
Traveller is a fine vehicle for Space Opera.
In addition to Space Viking, and Mr. Piper's other fine works, also try
E.E. "Doc" Smith's Lensmen series.
