💨 Abstract
Donald Trump has proposed a "Golden Dome" missile defense system, modeled after Israel's Iron Dome, which would use space-based weapons to intercept missiles from any point on Earth.

The project aims to counter threats like hypersonic missiles and space-based attacks, addressing critiques that current U.S.
