James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) would be by far the most powerful telescope we'd ever built.
It would harness the gravitational warping of the sun's gravity to allow us to observe the distant universe with a jaw-dropping resolution of 10 ^-10 arcseconds.
A larger telescope would need either gigantic dishes or networks of antennae flying through the solar system.
