gollark: It's weird that people worry about nuclear waste because it'll still be vaguely dangerous in a few tens of thousands of years (who cares, really? We cannot accurately predict anything that far out) but not very much about arbitrary chemical waste with no halflife.
gollark: And rocket launch is probably less safe than just burying it underground forever, there is not actually that much, especially with better reprocessing.
gollark: We have! The issues which happened previously would *not* happen in any recent good plant!
