Poul Anderson imitated the Future History, then wrote seven other future histories.
James Blish wrote two future histories, Cities In Flight and The Seedling Stars, and also a non-linear future historical sequence in which later works refer to common earlier works despite diverging from each other.
See:
I know that there are other future historians but I focus on these three!
(Right now, I am pleased with my succinct summary of Blish's complicated Haertel Scholium. About to walk out for Sunday lunch.)

Poul was sensible enough not to put much detail about the -immediate- future into his SFnal future history.
(Except for the Psychotechnic History.)
That makes for a good contrast with Heinlein.
