IC: Victorian Era Frontier Space
I had this exact idea before coming here. I would definitely be interested in playing.
I was going to go the route of having the Jules Verne's era engineers take a slightly different approach than starships. They were going to construct a vast Castle grounds in space, with a massive forest (to harvest for steam) and their own farms. Then have some lower decks for the workers and the nobility. I could imagine them having smaller craft to ferry cargo to and from their vessel.
Then do it kind of like Star Trek, except with Royal Marines, Hussars, and Grenadiers, and throw in some wild-west cowboys, Navajo Indians, A French Cavalier, Thomas Edison's older brother William Pitt Edison as "Master or Electrical Components and Engineering" and a few interesting NPC's in the crew to round things out while they explore ancient ruins and colonize it for her majesty Queen Victoria.
I can't imagine Victorians just exploring without exploiting.
