On top of my head I remember Uchuu Kyoudai and Rocket Girls for space exploration anime using even theoretically shorter term technology than Planetes. Futatsu no Spica is similar to Uchuu Kyoudai, but is not really scifi as it's 99.9% drama on earth, so it doesn't really count. The anime also stops at a weird place,

In special, I was reminded of Rocket Girls by the Polaris Dawn mission recently. EVA from a capsule, highly eliptical earth orbit, all private mission, etc.
