Why don't they just eject those chemical weapons into outer space? Even though its expensive, it's safer than just dumping it into the sea. Our generation might not suffer the consequences of this. But our children, and grandchildren will surely suffer from these environmental pollution.

- NAFV_P 13y ago> What if the rocket fails before it gets to space, and falls back to Earth? Excellent point, there are many things that could go wrong in the short time to low Earth orbit. Not only that, it is incredibly expensive.
- aegiso 13y agoBecause space isn't this thing where you eject stuff like a garbage chute. I recommend reading up on rocketry, orbital mechanics, and modern space programs because a) it's really cool stuff! and b) you'd quickly realize how ridiculous, dangerous, and counterproductive this suggestion is.

- Tortoise 13y agoA really reliable rocket is successful 95% of the time. What do you do the other 5% of the time when the rocket explodes/crashes. http://www.spacelaunchreport.com/log2012.html http://www.spacelaunchreport.com/log2012.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_insurance http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_insurance
