    DescriptionOn May 20, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that he would allocate $175 billion (approximately 25 trillion yen) over three years to building a defense system called the Golden Dome, which can intercept missiles launched toward the U.S. mainland from ground and space.

    President Trump is enthusiastic, saying that "it can intercept missiles launched from the other side of the Earth and even from space," and says that he will put the system into operation during his term in office, but is it really possible to build such an advanced interception system in such a short time?
