Elon Musk refutes report on SpaceX’s role in building Donald Trump’s ‘Golden Dome’ missile shield

SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has denied that his company is currently involved in building the proposed Golden Dome missile defense shield for the United States, despite a news report suggesting otherwise.

In a post on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Musk wrote: “SpaceX has not tried to bid for any contract in this regard. Our strong preference would be to stay focused on taking humanity to Mars. If the President asks us to help in this regard, we will do so, but I hope that other companies (not SpaceX) can do this.”
