Why Doesn't NASA Launch Trash Into the Sun

  • We have a major trash problem here on Earth, I mean, have you seen those pictures of "Trash island"? If we don't do something soon, trash could become a serious problem for every single person on the planet. Why not just shoot the trash into space, or better yet, send all that garbage straight into the sun. That'll teach it. And while that sounds like a plausible solution to our waste management problem, once you look at the logistics you realize it's insanely expensive to launch trash into space, let alone reach the sun!

      What garbage is, is a matter of how something is perceived. An object that has no cause is trash, but also one that has cause, but no capability. "Trash" is a complicated matter.

    2. it would cause a major environmental damage (because the city where I live is a small island)

    The probe looks like it would have to run the course of a Hot Wheels track just to get anywhere close to the Sun.

    In Sweden we use our trash for fuel and to heat our houses. We literally buy trash from other countries and use it.

    In a perfect world where not only money ends up to not be real and is entirely a made up human contraption, but we actually work together for the sake of the planet during these crucial times...

      Money is a made up human contraption. There's too many who won't accept that though.

    I thought once the sun stars creating iron, it's only a matter of time before it eventually dies. And with all the elements of the atoms that make up the trash that would be thrown at the sun, wouldn't that be a bad idea to begin with, since eventually those elements would fuse to form heavier elements including iron? You would be accelerating the death of the sun.

    What would be even worse than this dumb project even somehow succeeding is if you accidentally put something in your space trash that you really wish you hadn’t - e.g. your pet.

    In a few words, it may be even be cheaper to find a way to desintegrate trash or find new solutions that are eco friendly.

    There is a possible way. 1st you would have to build a space elevator, which, granted, are extremely expensive. However, a space elevator can be used for more than just trash. It can be used to send people and cargo anywhere in the Solar System we are wanting to go. Once it's up and running, it would be very cheap to operate. The trash would go up on the space elevator and when it reaches the top, it is scooped up by a device I can only describe as, a rotating slingshot. When released at the exact time and position, it can launch the trash, cargo, people, etc. to which ever direction is intended for them to go.
    It would be a very difficult and expensive project to undertake, but it is feasible.
    At least the price tag isn't in the quadrillions.

    Incredibly expensive and resources crazy. Best solution is what is mostly done, build deep landfills and compost it.

    Develop nano machines that break down garbage. All can be re-used when broken down and separated according to their corresponding atomic groups. Sending it to the sun would just speed up the resource depletion of the planet.

    Imagine if out of 102 attempts, 5 attempts fail. You'll literally get a trash shower globally. There's just no safety net in place. Now imagine if it was toxic trash or radioactive.

    If you do a flyby of Jupiter you could use its velocity to throw you into the sun, or eliminate a step and just threw out the trash directly into Jupiter.

    Everyone’s always saying we got too much trash. In my city we have a steam power plant, that uses TRASH AS FUEL. If every city built just 1, trash will be gone and there will be very cheap power. I see this as almost the only feasible way for a developing country to stop polluting, and make electricity available for most everyone that needs it.
