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!

The title is ‘Why Doesn’t NASA Launch Trash Into The Sun’
Here’s the answer- Big money and speed

[edgelord]

Imma buy part of the sun and charge people money when they want to send their trash to the part I own.

Trust me I will.

[cranklabexplosion-labcentr]

World: *needs to get rid of trash*


The illusion of money: *HAHA. You thought.*

3:49 “Star at the center of our universe”
4:21 “approaching the center of our universe”
I’m sorry did I hear that right?

[potatomatop]

Answer: because the sun roasts them back to earth.

[aidencasts]

Me sees the title from the notification thing: eh

Me carefully reading the title again: hey that could be interesting

[LittleBlue]

3:48 "star at the center of our universe" why did he call our solar system the universe? I genuinely hope he doesn't think that our solar system is the entire universe.

[quatch]

if we reach the point where we've develop the technology to efficiently send our trash to the sun, we'd probably already have also developed alternate ways of dealing with it.

[Jonnyc]

If they did that, this show would be no more

[kaellimdy]

Because it’d be considered in humane if you send my ex into the sun!!

[therealladies.]

"It could be free just saying who are we paying, the alien's?."

[pewpeat]

you kept saying the center of our universe when talking about the sun, seems like it would be more truthful if you said the center of our solar system

[popeluigi]

Last time I was this early, Futurama did this episode

[pianonrd]

infographics show: maybe launch into sun?
Me: plz don't send me to the sun.

[blair]

Everytime I watch a space video I get an ad with Chris Hadfield..

[MrKing-otml]

This is expensive.
Mr beast:umm hold my wallet.

Why would the world even worry about money to this point it’s a situation of life or death later on. Just make it free like It will only help you to make human kind survive longer. Money and Global Debt Isn’t something we should worry about now, Compagnies and People only think about money these days and this ego is killing us. We can’t continue like this
