I review the status of ground-based radial-velocity searches for extrasolar planets and speculate about the new results that can be expected in this field over the coming years. Then I review the plans for astrometric space missions and speculate about the impact that these missions will have on ground-based radial-velocity work, citing the specific examples of extra-solar planet research, the mass-luminosity relation for M dwarfs and metal-poor stars, and Galactic structure and evolution.
