I’m sorry, it seems like you think anybody is suggesting that launching nuclear waste to space should be a means of disposal for it. Clearly that’s not a workable solution for a dozen reasons.
A common (and reasonable) objection to nuclear powered spacecraft is the question of “what happens if the rocket explodes?” That’s really what I was responding to.
The solution for nuclear waste is frustratingly simple, bury it. It’s only a political problem because of misguided nimbyism.
I agree with burying it as the best solution. I found the articles of how we mark those locations interesting as well. You need some marking that will outlive common languages. There’s even talks about breeding cats that change color when exposed to radiation.

Oh I see. Sorry I was drinking.

It’s fascinating stuff
