LSST is due to start making commissioning observations in 2020, with limited test surveys in 2021, and full surveys planned to commence in 2022. The telescope and camera will have a 9.6 square degree field of view and a single exposure limiting magnitude of g’=25.0. Capable of surveying up to 4400 square degrees per night, LSST will provide a more than an order of magnitude increase in the discovery and observation rate of Solar system objects. In this talk I will concentrate on what we might anticipate the Inner Solar system might look like by the end of the 2020's, and the resulting science that will be enabled by LSST.
