Unfortunately, in cases such as these, the forms of punishment allowed by Western societies don't provide an adequate deterrent against this. Imagine what they'd do to this extreme degree of traitor in China.

The middle of No and Where: Johnston Island and the US Air Force?s nuclear anti-satellite weapon
February 26, 2024

https://www.thespacereview.com/article/4748/1

Recently there was a flurry of media attention about Russia?s reported development of a nuclear-armed anti-satellite (ASAT) weapon. Soon after the space age began in the late 1950s, both the United States and Soviet Union began studying and then developing and deploying ASATs. From 1962 to 1975 the United States Air Force operated the nuclear-armed Program 437 ASAT from a remote location in the Pacific Ocean known as Johnston Island. Johnston was not only remote, it was small. There was nowhere to hide from exploding rockets or annoying coworkers, and if your hobbies did not include fishing or softball, you were stuck with the base library?s small collection of books. Now, a recently discovered trove of photographs of Johnston Island personnel and facilities sheds some light on what life was like on the tiny island where America kept its nuclear ASAT.
