1. Dr. Z (Thomas Zurbuchen) the NASA Associate Administrator for the Science Mission Directorate
2. Kathy Lueders the NASA Associate Administrator for the Space Operations Mission Directorate
3. Jessica Jenson - SpaceX VP for Customer Operations and Integration
4. Jared Isaacman - commercial astronaut and Polaris Dawn commander
5. Patrick Crouse - Hubble Space Telescope Project Manager
Looking at these five people and it's pretty clear what will be announced: Jared Isaacman appears to be putting together a SpaceX Crew Dragon mission to go up and service Hubble, which is otherwise approaching the end of its life!
