Almost 25 years after the U.S. began deploying major parts of its national missile defense system, the technology of detecting and intercepting ballistic missiles has come a long way.
Earlier this year, President Trump unveiled the "Golden Dome" missile defense system, which builds on technological developments that greatly enhance the ability to both detect and intercept missiles launched against the U.S.
But inbound missiles aren't the only airborne threat Americans face.
We are of course referring to the mosquito, often considered to be the deadliest animal on Earth, if not also one of the most annoying.
