The Trump administration is expanding its search for partners to build the Golden Dome missile defense system, courting Amazon.com's Project Kuiper and big defense contractors as tensions with Elon Musk threaten SpaceX's dominance in the program,

The Golden Dome aims to shoot missiles out of the sky before they reach U.S. soil, similar to Israel’s Iron Dome. The push to diversify the project comes as Trump repeatedly threatened to sever all federal ties with SpaceX following his and Musk’s spectacular falling-out.

Trump has officially iced out Elon Musk’s SpaceX from the heart of his $175 billion Golden Dome missile defense project and is now pulling in Jeff Bezos’ Amazon instead. The decision comes directly from the White House after Trump and Elon’s relationship collapsed publicly on June 5.
