So to recap: ESA LVs, both Europa and Argo. ESA Manned Spacecraft, Solaris, with an ATV derivative. Space Station for the 1990s - which is what George H W Bush had called for in 1989, but never really got. And STS in service and a SM-SDLV - which would likely be referred to as Shuttle-C.
This leaves - at the very least - three major points to be covered. Russian Space Programme, Chinese Space Programme, and Unmanned Space Exploration.
For Russia, there are some issues. Since the Soviet Economy was collapsing from the latter half of the 1980s, it will likely collapse ITTL as per OTL. IOTL, the Russian Space Programme was severely cash-strapped, and dependant on US investment to keep going at all throughout the 1990s. Furthermore, ITTL, there will be a growing ESA that can operate on notable footing with NASA, leaving less incentive to call in the Russians, making the situation potentially a lot worse for them. That. Is going to be a major issue that must be resolved - and require a
lot of 'make-work-juice' in the process.
My initial option sees Russia being able to convince at least a few former Soviet Blocks to pool their resources together in order to stay in the game. If they can snag Ukraine,
Energia-M could well see some life.
For China, having three serious players could compell them to step up their own programme a notch or two, though the potential for more accidents could well happen as a result.
As for the unmanned side of things. Perhaps another one or two Outer Planet Missions by 2010. Some more to the Moon, Venus and Mars. Proper exploration of the Asteroid Belt is a distinct possibility - Ceres may receive a thorough looking at.
And, of course, Hubble will be happening as per OTL.
All of which will be worked out in the coming posts.
