AI Overview

What If We Sent Our Trash Into the Sun? | What If Show

It's incredibly difficult to send trash to the Sun because Earth's high 
orbital speed (about 67,000 mph) means you need immense energy to slow 
down and fall into the Sun, which is harder than simply escaping Earth's 
gravity to leave the solar system. The main barriers are astronomical 
costs, massive fuel requirements for deceleration, the extreme risk of 
launch failure distributing hazardous waste, and the logistical 
nightmare of launching Earth's entire garbage output
