I blame all those Soda-streams from the 70's and 80's

[Lizzie Zoom]

We don’t have to wait for space travel to start polluting the rest of the universe. We can fire our nuclear waste off into deep space. But, of course, there will be some who object to us polluting the galaxy.

.......and that can join the human races space junk "out there" that is a serious threat to us travelling around the globe in space, let alone to our "life controlling - can't do without" satilites.

No. I didn’t say into orbit, I said deep space.

I think the main objection is that if anything goes amiss with the launch, a la challenger/Columbia, you've made an incredibly efficient dirty bomb. And then detonated it all over yourself.  particularly problematic  given the nuclear industry's penchant for taking all the money and letting someone else clean up the mess. So doubtless the launch would be contracted to the lowest bidder.

But to get into deep space you have to go through the junk that is apparently spreading fast.

Yup...India........so......

[biggriffin]

why do I need to bother, about more crap, published by boffins with an agenda.

global waming and an ice age killed the dinosaurs, and they didn't drive or have fridges.

[BazaJT]

Yes and mankind are probably the next dinosaurs the trouble is we're likely to take everything else down with us.

And that's a problem because...

No, a piece of rock some 9 miles wide hit the Earth at 40,000 mph in what is now known as the Gulf of Mexico, causing a hole some 125 miles wide and chucking up into the atmosphere billions of tons of rock some 66 million years ago. It is calculated the impact had the equivalent power of 10 million Hiroshima atomic bombs. That and it's after affects killed most of the dinosaurs in just over a day.

[Doctor Gollum]

Because it effectively blocked out the sun for a year and caused a mini ice age

The aliens have mostly left us alone so far, but if we start lobbing toxic radioactive bombs out there at them.....

It would get rid of a few call centres

They have left us alone because they know we are incredibly dangerous, with believers in UFO's pointing out that significant ET interest in us has only happened after we detonated the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombs in 1945.
