Riassunto

Inevitable Story for Everyone Narrated by an
Insider Aerospace Engineer Destined to Tell It

Coming of the Golden Dome takes readers inside the largest, most expensive, and most ambitious defense initiative ever undertaken. Written in clear, accessible language, this timely political science analysis reveals how China, Russia, and the United States are competing for dominance in space—and what their strategies, investments, strengths, and vulnerabilities mean for global security. Discover the battlespace, traditional satellite network, the shift toward a resilient satellite network, and a quantitative Resilient Space Warfare System Checklist for evaluating the Golden Dome. The final chapter uncovers its global, multilayered architecture and the role of Kinetic Kill Vehicles (KKVs). Today’s geopolitical realities and technological breakthroughs have made this defense system inevitable. Now comes the defining challenge: making it work. Essential reading for the public, policymakers, national defense agencies and organizations, military and defense professionals, military cadets, aerospace engineering students, STEM students, veterans, military families, and anyone who wants to understand how America meets its foremost obligation: “Keep Citizens Safe!”
C. Robert “Bob” Welti, Ph.D., brings the precise qualifications required to author this book. A retired aerospace engineer, he combines advanced education, extensive defense-industry experience, and a proven ability to make complex technical concepts accessible to nontechnical readers. He provided systems engineering support for U.S. Air Force satellite programs, and his dissertation, “Recursive Navigation for the Midcourse Phase of Orbital Rendezvous,” directly relates to the Golden Dome’s Satellite-Based Interceptor. As a defense contractor Program Manager, he led the modernization of command software for the U.S. Air Force Satellite Control Network. His SCI clearance and comprehensive knowledge of U.S. surveillance satellite systems further establish his authority on the subject. He is also the author of Satellite Basics for Everyone, which demonstrates both his command of satellite technology and his ability to explain demanding technical subjects to a broad audience.
