if the new manned launcher really happens we might be able to
service webb. It should be redesigned to permit in orbit repairs.


Nope. It won't *be* in orbit, but in deep space, 1,000,000 mi. from earth.
Human beings will never travel 10 days from earth to fix it, it would be
cheaper to build a new one.
