Gates of Horizon is a new space MMORPG that was released recently, it is developed with Unity3D and already has a client for Linux (and Mac and Windows as well of course) it is also about to release its Android and iOS clients soon.
It is a space simulation game that has strategy and RPG elements, the player has a corporation that can have several agents and controls their ships, and you can even control a fleet. The universe is quite large and it can change (it can be conquered by Aliens).
So, the players fight against those aliens. You can be a trader, fighter, miner or a pirate (as with most space MMO's).
It uses the mouse for control of the game, a rare choice in Space MMORPG games.
Also, the developers have expressed their intention to release the Source code under an open source license.

..and one of two ships mining (when the asteroids deplete, you can see them explode, nice!!)
