What exactly do you mean as "space opera system"?
I enjoy the WEG (Star Wars) D6 system. And its freely available online:

Came here to say this.

When someone says that there is an implicit "legally" right before the free or freely. And you knew that and are being intentionally literal about it just to feel smug about correcting someone.
Enjoy your (you)

Shut up Virt.Adventures on Dungeon Planet is a pretty neat science fantasy system though
Throw in a vote for Traveller, and a second on the WEG Star Wars.

I'm going to throw out FATE, the narrative mechanics like aspects are great for a over the top character driven story on a galactic scale.

Well, fuck you too.
The FFG Star Wars game has great mechanics for a star wars experience. If you want to be the chosen ones play Force and Destiny, where your power dwarfs most beings. Plus it got interactive narration so it really plays like a hero's journey. Not for those that like a crunchy experience, though.
