That depends on who did it. MOST nations - including, I believe, ALL of the current nuclear powers excepting North Korea (and, technically, Russia) - have signed the treaty that disallows the placement of nukes in space. Certainly the U.S., China and the Soviet Union signed the treaty. More info: {{ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outer_Space_Treaty }}

Army Veteran I should have specified "nations" since international law differs inapplicability to individuals. Sometime in the 1980s, a man named Dennis Hope used a loophole in the United Nations Outer Space Treaty to file a claim of ownership of the moon. His claim has never been contested. -
