The Pentagon’s Golden Dome initiative envisions a global, multi-layered defense architecture designed to track and counter emerging threats. Much of the system will depend on space-based and ground-based sensors — an evolving network meant to detect launches, follow hypersonic weapons and monitor activity across Earth and orbit.
With new prototypes in development, industry competition heating up and Congress weighing funding commitments, decisions made today will shape the role of sensors in missile defense programs for years to come.
Join us as we explore the technologies behind Golden Dome, what’s necessary to make them operate at a high level and what possibilities could be in the works for the satellites involved.
Speakers:
- Dan Knight, vice president of Golden Dome, Arcfield
- Rob Mitrevski, president of Golden Dome strategy and integration, L3Harris
- Tony Frazier, chief executive officer, LeoLabs
- Moderated by Sandra Erwin, senior staff writer, SpaceNews
