SDI or Strategic Defense Initiative

We always have known it by the Star wars, people may think is the movie but no is the nick name for, Strategic Defense Initiative or SDI. This program started on March 23 of 1983 under the command of President Ronald Reagan.

The SDI program was designed to prevent and or watch for any missiles that were fire from anywhere, specially the USSR. Basically it was like a satellite and a land base watching or looking for anything that was going on so that way the United Stated can try or stop those missiles. But as we all know there wasn’t any missile or bomb use during the whole Cold War. So by the end of the Cold War, thirty billion dollars were invested on the SDI program and the program was never use it for the best of the human raise I would say.

The SDI program was abandoned, but there were also two S.A.L.T. Treaty with the USSR that no longer exists, now known as Russia about the anti-ballistic missiles, bombs ECT. In 2001 President George W. Bush cited article 15 of the ABM treaty and took the United States out of it, and the relationship with Russia have being improving.
