not sure if it's better to ask this here or to worldbuilding.se but.. Which countries except Russia/China/US can do their own crewed launch and return crew to Earth unharmed if this becomes really necessary to do so fast(for some definition of 'fast')? Which timeframes? Assuming that Mercury/Vostok-1 level is enough Assuming money is not an object and leadership really want it done. Also, crew loss could be tolerated if it's one-time thing. Reusing something which is not human-rated but could be used as such is ok. Assuming that it should be done without direct help from Russia/China/US (so country must make use it's own rocket and ship) but it's ok to use "previous" experience with shared space programs.
