Re:SpaceX closing in on first Starship Super Heavy launch by tokipin on Friday April 07, 2023 @04:36PM (#35486643)
The reason we ended up with JWST and not telescopes with different profiles is because of high launch costs and size constraints. For example you wouldn't consider sending up a merely good hastily thrown together telescope when the launch cost is on the order of a billion dollars. With those constraints significantly reduced, we can employ a richer set of design profiles. I'm particularly interested in mass production approaches.
