As mentioned, the Outer Space Treaty pretty much makes that impossible.


The thinking at the time made it so that any attack from the Moon would take 3 days to arrive and so give plenty of warning of attack, while any attack going the other direction to neutralize the Lunar Deterrent equally gave 3 days notice to arrive.


So not only do you have a guaranteed invulnerable deterrent, you have multiple days to confirm accidental launches instead of ~20min.

I figure that the first big asteroid that could have only been diverted via nuclear pulse will put an end to the no nukes in space clause, if not the entire OST.
