We concentrate on Very Long Baseline Interferometric (VLBI), and space-VLBI results obtained with the VLBI Space Observatory Programme (VSOP). In 2012, VSOP-2 will be launched, which will allow VLBI observations at an unprecedented angular resolution. One particular question VSOP-2 could answer is whether some of the High Frequency Peakers (HFP) are indeed the youngest objects in the family of GPS and CSS sources. VSOP-2 observations can reveal their angular morphology and determine whether any are Ultra-compact Symmetric Objects.Latex, 6 pages, 1 fig: proceedings of the symposium "Approaching Micro-Arcsecond Resolution with VSOP-2: Astrophysics and Technology" (ISAS/JAXA, Sagamihara, Japan, 3-7 Dec 2007).
