Hey, can someone explain to me why we are not stending nuclear waste into space having a reliable rocket that can carry a decent amounts of cargo? I'm thinking about Falcon Heavy. One start a year would mean that US doesn't need to store anymore waste underground. Submitted by William0fBaskerville t3_10kukw2 on January 25, 2023 at 9:14 AM in space 84 comments 12
