It seems like the race to space has complications in that there are over 200,000 pieces of metal floating around and more to come. Do you think that eventually
humans will block out the sun?

Space, the final frontier, or a place to throw garbage?

I don't think the sunblock industry would allow that to happen. Look what they did to light bulbs.

Meh, space is just another garbage dump, just like Mt. Everest.

Meh, space is just another garbage dump, just like Mt. Everest.At least they gots bodies up there. Cool to look at. All that we've left in space is crap. We should put some corpses in orbit. |

Not that I'm aware of. I think all the space deaths have ended up part of the atmosphere or jelly on impact with Earth.

I doubt them fuckers could get anything into orbit, let alone get something to break Earth's gravity.

No, we will never block out the sun no a much crap we dump into space. Its simply that vast.

I think it is high time that some forward thinking company works out a method for cleaning up the orbiting junk. There's no need to bring it back to Earth
or anything, just give it a nudge into the sun's gravity well and PRESTO!! no more junk!

Why not bring the space junk to the moon and build a super 8?

We should put some corpses in orbit.Actually, this is a great idea. Graveyards are really a waste of land. This way you could just sit in your backyard and look up at Aunt Eunice. |

You know there's more dead than alive in Daly City, CA?
But as a tradition I don't think orbit is the best place for mortal coils. A few spinning Eunices would be nifty, but too many up there and eventually one will plow through some craft full of people like this and that would be a shame.

Hell hath no fury like an astronaut scorned. Okay, say the bodies are launched into deep space, which I hear is pretty...well...spacey. I'm talking like millions of vermemikes away. Wouldn't they pretty much implode after they were 'released' from the rocket anyway? |

Wouldn't they pretty much implode after they were 'released' from the rocket anyway?As long as they're let loose beyond the Earth's gravitational influence, they'll find a final resting place somewhere convenient. Dunno what effect the vacuum of space would have on a dead body. I imagine that if there's still gas contained under pressure, the structure containing it would explode. Tests must be done! I elect StaJu to find out the answers to these burning questions. |
