President Donald Trump's announcement of the 'Golden Dome' missile defense system has ignited debate due to its colossal projected costs, ranging from $175 billion to a staggering $831 billion over 20 years. Inspired by the Israel's Iron Dome, Trump claims it will be operational by 2029, but experts contest the timeline's feasibility and the authenticity of the threat it aims to defend against. This initiative would also mark the first instance of the U.S. deploying weapons in space, prompting critical discussions on its necessity and funding allocation.
