Rocky Jones, Men Into Space (tried very hard for realism--didn't do too
badly for the time), and Tom Corbett (alghouth FX shot were in short
supply and were mostly a V-2) were a few.
Incidentally, in confirming my recollection I came up on a marvelous
early '60s German series, Raumpatrouille, contemporary with Star Trek
TOS, that has an effing gorgeous ship and a captain who makes Captain
Kirk look like a girl scout.
