My hope is that between upcoming rockets with larger fairings, commercialization and greater availability of satellite components, and reduced launch costs, space based telescopes will become more common and accessible. I'm also looking forward to crazy new concepts that become more viable, like LUVOIR or a radio telescope on the dark side of the moon.
