This paper describes the results of a recent study of possible configurations for a next-generation optical space telescope with order-of-magnitude improvements over the Hubble Space Telescope. Overall configuration characteristics including optical performance, weights, and dimensions are given. Launch vehicle packaging concepts are described, and a scenario for orbital assembly developed. Finally, an assessment of technology readiness is provided.
