This is a ridiculous waste of money. What happens when there is a major continental fracture/disaster in the next 10000 years putting the sites possibly thousands of miles in any direction... I know it isn't likely to happen but putting this refuse inside the planet probably isn't a good idea.
- nostrademons 16y agoThe site's chosen because of its relative geological stability, and anyway, geology doesn't work that way. An example of a "major continental fracture" would be the Great Rift Valley, one of the few places on earth where you can watch a new divergent plate boundary being formed. It started about 65 million years ago, and has resulted in one major sea that is about 250 miles wide, and a few big lakes. 10,000 years is a blink in geologic time. Even on an active plate boundary, you might see the earth move maybe a couple hundred meters in that time period.
