Some of the suggested formation flying missions for the next 10 years will be presented. Most of these are in the space science area. The reasons for the lesser interest from Earth scientists will be listed and critiqued. The needs for space infrastructure to service formations of low-Earth-orbit satellite will be brought out, including possible uses of the International Space Station.
