Golden Dome seen as test of binding space rules
Original: Golden Dome: A cheap test of who wants binding rules in space
The Lowy Institute argues that the US Golden Dome missile defence project serves as a low-cost way to reveal which states genuinely support binding rules for space. The plan, involving space-based interception elements, raises questions over the militarisation of orbit and whether existing norms and treaties can constrain major powers.
Why now: The US Golden Dome missile defence initiative has reignited debate over whether binding rules for space activities are achievable.
