Looks like the plans for the future didn't go to well. Bit scary with that much radioactive waste going uncontrolled. Some bright spark needs to figure out a use for radioactive waste then all would be sweet. Anyone got a crystal ball to look into the future :D |

| 1329563 | 2013-02-23 03:20:00 | And they used to dump it at sea! Seafood anyone ? |

| 1329565 | 2013-02-23 11:09:00 | They will probably just send it into space... Let's hope if they do, that they don't use anything but American rockets to launch it into space. The US rockets have a far lower likelihood of blowing up on the launch pad, Columbia notwithstanding... | johcar (6283) | ||
| 1329566 | 2013-02-23 15:42:00 | I think the rockets idea is a bit of a red herring I think there is far too much waste, they'd be launching a rocket every day for the next 10 years and what would that cost? That glass idea sounds good, But if the USA can't afford it who else could ? As Fraser said in Dad's Army - "We're doomed!" |

| 1329567 | 2013-02-23 19:33:00 | This will be the terror that America will be stuck with. Vast swathes of land and eventually waterways that are compromised with their own nuclear wastes. Just wait until they decide it's too expensive to decommission all their nuclear naval fleet, and they decide to park them up in some distant 'American' land, like Samoa, where they can decay and leak far from the US shores... into our Pacific. Yellow Glow Tuna anyone? |

The US rockets have a far lower likelihood of blowing up on the launch pad, Columbia notwithstanding... US rockets are more open to the media to see in Florida except those on their missle testing areas conducted in the desert, would you trust so much as one incident with radiation involved? btw, Columbia was destroyed on reentry not on Launch your thinking of Challenger. Part of the Challenger inquiry was the risk of safety carrying satellites/space probes with radioactive cores. I think you do some research the safety risk of shooting nuke waste into space is way to high no matter what country. |
