Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT):
Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) is considered as it will be the world’s tops advanced and proficient ground-focused mid-infrared, near-infrared and optical telescope. It will join the advance inventions of accuracy control, sectioned glass design and adaptive optics.
The TMT will have the ability of being the most advanced and skilled telescope. It will possess the capability to read the objects which are not very visible or are very far and to focus them with the current services and will be a main toll for answer most of the convincing and vital queries in existing science.

Extremely Large telescopes:
Extremely Large telescopes are thought to be the one of the biggest significances in ground-functioned astronomy. It will greatly elaborate astrophysical information, permitting the in detail study of subjects containing planets of other stars, the initial objects of the complete universe, huge holes of black color, and the circulation and nature of the murky matter and energy that have dominance over the universe. [9]
Here comes some difference with two generations i.e. of current and next generation.
The biggest ground-mounted telescope functioning currently is Gran Telescopio Canarias having an aperture of 10.4 m and light-combining zone of 74m2. There are some other scheduled tremendously big telescopes that contain 30 m/655 m2 Thirty Meter Telescope and 25 m/368 m2 Giant Magellan Telescope which are also a target at the ending of this era or the staring of next decade for accomplishment. The above described telescopes relate to the next generations of optically ground-mounted telescopes. The design of these is much broader than the early ones. The telescope is considerably greater than the other deliberate telescopes, even with the scrape of the E-ELT, having a diameter of 39.3m for the main glass and 1116 m2 of light-combining surface. The next generation telescopes will possess various scientific instruments. It will also be likely to shift from one tool to another within some minutes. The vault and telescope will be capable to alter locations on the sky and to begin a new reflection within a small duration. The next generation telescopes will not also add the detection of planets downcast to Earth, like objects through unintended calculations of the shaking movement of the stars disturbed by the planets that path them, but also having the straight photography of greater planets and likely the description of the environment.[12]
Moreover, the next generation set of tools will permit the astronomers to investigate the initial steps of the creation of the terrestrial system and to perceive water and biological particles in proto terrestrial plates about stars in the forming. The telescopes will response the basic queries related to the planet creation and development.[11]
By searching the very far entities the E-ELT will give signs to considerate the creation of the starting entities that made, primeval stars, primeval galaxies and dark dumps and the associations between them. Studying large entities as dark holes will facilitates from the control of the E-ELT to attain more vision to time-forming spectacles joined with the different methods at production about dense entities.
The next generation telescopes are designed to form the complete description of the principal galaxies and to track their development through galactic era. Studies of the initial galaxies with the advanced telescopes like E-ELT will provide signs that will assist in understanding the formation and evolvement of the objects [11]. Moreover, the next-generation telescope will be a different apparatus for forming a catalog of the altering values of the different entities in universe during time and to realize star creation background of galaxies.
One of the most burning features of the next generation telescope is the chance of creating a direct calculation of the hastening of the growth of the universe. A calculation like this will show a great influence in the consideration of the universe. The telescopes will explore for likely changes in the basic corporeal constants with period.[12]
The next generation Telescopes:
There are currently placed big telescopes on earth but however, the more-larger telescopes are being planned and are being constructed at physical locations like British Columbia, Canary Islands, Greece, South Africa and some other regions.
Very Large telescope:
The world’s biggest and fast advanced optical telescope called Very Large Telescope is mounted at Paranal Observatory at Atacama Chile. It consists of four 8.2 meter replicating telescopes complemented with various little dynamic 1.8 meter supplementary telescopes. Waves of light attained by cavernous space of attached telescopes are joined in the interferometer of VLT’s to form the large extended tenacity better than a single can give. By having an astonishing optical tenacity, highly shrill images can be produced by VLT. It can gain light from the far most and weakest entities lying in universe. [3]

The wavelengths need to be explored more in detail. Telescopes mounted on the earth are not able to watch many slices of the spectrum as most of the energy arising to us from the whole universe is obstructed by the outermost surface of the planet or is engrossed by the wetness in the environment before they reach to the earth surface. To deal with the issue, telescopes are founded in space. Many of the telescopes have been sprung to space recently. Some are planned like COBRAS, ARISE, HSIM, Agile and many more. The expansion of wavelengths around the complete electromagnetic band is efficiently higher than the thin spectral of colors observed by the naked eye of human. Telescopes are required by astronomers that can get the complete variety of frequencies so the objects of universe emitting energy can be observed by having the expansion of range.
For example the extent of universe does contain dust and gas that is far-flung too icy to discharge in observable light or smaller wavelength like X-rays. Though the temperatures quite less than coldest place of earth, the dust and gas in cavernous space can discharge energy at sub millimeter and faraway-infrared wavelengths. At times stars and other objects are warm enough to polish at visual a wavelength that is capable to seen, but they got hide from the spectacles due to high clouds and dust particles. Luckily, the clouds of dust do propagate the availed energy at the sub-millimeter and far-infrared wavelengths.
Gamma-ray Large Area Space Telescope:
NASA did launch GLAST as a window on earth that can help scientist to observe gamma rays, the biggest structure of light. GLAST will assist to explore huge-bulky dark holes, merged group of stars, warm gasses flowing at light speed and some other extreme-energy entities around the universe. It will tell the detail of extreme energy entities of the universe but supporting the answers for the ground space entities.
Astronomers and experts will utilize GLAST to explore how dark circles can motivate the plans of gas out at fast speed. Physicist will explore the observatory to search little atoms at energies much higher than the elements on earth. Cosmologists will utilize it to explore the history of the origin and development of the universe. [12]
GLAST’s purpose is to explain the much large objects in the Universe, where nature binds dynamisms far past anything likely on the earth, searching for the symbols of novel rules of physics and the one who make the secretive dense material, explore how dark holes motivate huge plans of substances near to speed of light, assist to blow the secrecies of the impressively dominant blasts recognized as gamma-ray spurts and to explain pending queries around a wide variety of points, containing solar flashes, pulsars and the beginning of celestial emission.[11]

Herschel Space Observatory:
This telescope is planned for inauguration at 2008 end; the European Space Agency's Herschel telescope seems to have a position in space to explore the universe for the light starting away-infrared and sub-millimeter parts of the electromagnetic range. Throughout the services it provided for three years in range, the telescope should disclose the ancient and far away galaxies and stars. It will assist in looking deeper to home while lying at moons, planets and some other places residing in the solar system. [13]
Herschel will construct the photos by identifying and copying energy arriving from the entities around the universe. Herschel will make its images by detecting and recording heat coming from objects across the Universe. It will be the initial terrestrial telescope to study the 60-670 micro varieties of bright at the sub-millimeter and far-infrared wavelengths of the electromagnetic range. [13]

James Webb space Telescope:
NASA is creating the JWST, earlier recognized as the next generation space telescope that is planned to be launched in 2013. JWST’s tools will be planned to operate mainly in the infrared series of the electromagnetic range, having some abilities in the evident series.
As the Webb can be assumed as altering the Hubble Space Telescope, it mainly focuses a somehow changing area of the electromagnetic series – starting by far observable to the central-infrared. The wavelength range varies from the Hubble that gets a variety from the origin of ultraviolet to the infrared. The Webb will handle a near-infrared observation, a varied-entity spectrometer and a central infrared spectrometer camera.
