A normal night in New York... suddenly, total blackout. No lights. No signals. No enemy in sight.
This is the nightmare scenario the U.S. fears most: an EMP attack from space. To counter that, U.S President Donald Trump has unveiled a colossal $175 billion defense plan — The Golden Dome.
Inspired by Israel’s Iron Dome but supercharged for the space age, this shield is designed to protect all of America from hypersonic missiles, EMPs, and satellite-launched weapons.
How does it work? What makes it different? And why is the new Space War era not just science fiction anymore?
In this Oneindia Explainer, we break down the threats, the tech, and the terrifying future of war — Beyond Earth.

00:00Imagine a normal night in New York City, lights glowing, phones buzzing, life in motion.
00:07Then, in a blink, silence.
00:10Every light out, every screen dead.
00:13Not a sound, not a clue, no explosion, no enemy in sight.
00:18This isn't the start of a sci-fi movie.
00:21It's the real terrifying potential of an EMP, an electromagnetic pulse attack.
00:27The dream of space-based defense began in 1983,
00:32when President Ronald Reagan proposed a futuristic missile shield dubbed Star Wars.
00:38Now, decades later, that dream is being revived, only bigger, faster, and more dangerous.
00:46Meet the threats the U.S. is preparing for with Trump's Golden Dome.
00:52Ballistic missiles.
00:52They soar into space, then dive down at Mach 5 or more.
00:58The modern versions can carry multiple warheads, each aimed at a different city.
01:03Hypersonic missiles.
01:05Faster than sound.
01:06Maneuverable.
01:07Undetectable.
01:08Impossible to intercept.
01:10Until now.
01:12Weapons from space.
01:13Imagine satellites launching attacks from above, giving you seconds to respond.
01:19EMPs.
01:20The silent killer.
01:21One blast high above Earth, and your power grid, cars, computers, phones, all go dark.
01:29To counter these threats, Donald Trump has proposed a $175 billion super project, the Golden Dome.
01:37Inspired by Israel's Iron Dome, the Golden Dome isn't for short-range threats.
01:42It's designed to protect the entire U.S. continent from the most advanced weapons on Earth and beyond.
01:49Here's how it's meant to work.
01:52Satellites with sensors spot launches instantly.
01:55Space-based lasers or AI-guided interceptors neutralize the missile before it reaches Earth.
02:02Back on Earth, EMP-hardened systems keep communications alive.
02:06It's a multi-layered, 360-degree defense net.
02:11Ambitious?
02:12Yes.
02:13Unrealistic?
02:14Maybe.
02:14Here's what the future of defense may look like.
02:18AI-guided missiles with near-instant reaction times.
02:22Laser turrets shooting down threats at light speed.
02:26Atmospheric ionization tracking, using the sky itself to detect danger.
02:31And it's not just America.
02:33China is rapidly building space-based strike platforms, hypersonic weapons, and anti-satellite tech,
02:40all aimed at eroding America's edge.
02:43This isn't science fiction anymore.
02:46The next war might not begin on land or sea or even in the air,
02:51but far above, beyond Earth, in space.
02:54The space race is back.
02:56Only this time, it's armed.
02:59The next war might not begin on land or sea or even in the air.
03:03The next war might not begin on land or sea or even in the air.
