Well someone will protest that Jon. They worry about launch vehicles
exploding on takeoff ect..

Packing it into projectiles and making a rail gun that could launch
them into deep space would be a safe way, plus you could even shoot at
stars.

But should we pollute deep space?

Let's roll!

Let's..and that little waste problem..you people never heard of
depleated uranium shells?
You can get rid of them at super sonic speeds.

If man is causing global warming, then man can cure it.

There is only one viable option -

Atomic Power!

Just like the French, we can replace all of our power plants with
atomic
powered plants. We can heat houses with sub critical nuclear piles
that
simply generate heat. These same piles can also power cars. We can go
to
an all nuclear Navy and atomic powered aircraft and rockets. There
have
even been nuclear batteries and nuclear powered medical implants!

Nuclear energy is proven to be safe and clean. The nuclear industry
creates high paying tech jobs. We can export our nuclear expertise to
lesser developed countries.

Rather than waste money on silly global warming studies and even
sillier
solar power schemes, it's time to roll up our sleeves and get those
atoms
smashing!

More nukes and less kooks!



No...and if there is anyone else out there smarter than we are, they're
not going to like it much either...we can't deal with a bunch of fanatic
Arabs...how the heck are we going to deal with irate aliens???

I'm not really worried about it floating around in space mucking up the
universe. Point it in the general direction of the sun and let gravity
do it's thing. A small amount of debris in the sun is less than a spit
in the ocean.

What I *am* worried about is the launch doing a Challenger impression
and showering radioactive debris all over the Atlantic. That's why
disposal in space is not an option.

I like rail guns.. that's a great technology perfectly suited to this sort
of thing.

Did you know rail guns are powered by Faraday Unipolar Generators? They can
supply huge currents and have large rotational momentums.

Another thing even neater than rail guns are longitudinal amperian forces in
water arc discharges for launching projectiles. You don't have to worry
about melting moving contacts as in rail guns with these.
