I seem to remember mention of an orbiting Hubble replacement to go up there in due course. A part of these deliberations was whether they actually had to have a working optical-wavelengths telescope right up until its replacement had been launched.

And there's the under-discussed matter of the Shuttle's replacement. Perhaps something designed to mission rather than designed to cost.
