In the vein of "Von Braun lives Longer," I figured I'd pitch this one that I'd had banging around for awhile. I watched a National Geographic channel special on the space race, and it was interesting just how bad the timing was for Korolev's retirement and then death.
The lunar program seemed to be in it's final stages, but there were still problems to overcome and there didn't seem to be another person who had the ability to think through problems like he did.

So...come on space junkies...what if cancer hadn't taken Korolev?
