NASA's mission is: "To understand and project our home planet, To explore the universe and search for life, To inspire the next generation of explorers ... as only NASA can." These mission concepts are further defined in our recently published"Strategic Objectives for 2005 and Beyond" , which include conducting advanced telescope searches for Earth-like planets and habitable environments around the stars, as well as exploring the universe to understand its origin, structure, evolution, and destiny. This presentation will summarize several future space-based missions currently in formulation to meet these objectives, and will outline some of the principal challenges in the field of optics to their success.
