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 test of which countries genuinely want binding rules governing activities in space. The piece frames the initiative as a probe of international commitments around space governance, as governments weigh whether to push for enforceable norms or tolerate continued military expansion beyond Earth.
Why now: Debate over militarisation of space and the lack of binding international rules is resurfacing around missile defence projects.
