Store it safely until such time in the future we can dump it on Jupiter.
Trust me, Jupiter won’t mind. It could swallow our whole earth and not care one bit.

It would take less energy to send it the other way and let it fall into the sun.

"Store it safely until such time in the future we can dump it on Jupiter. "

Haven't you heard? pResident obama won't even let us go back to the moon, so forget Jupiter.

He's planning on making NASA into "global warming central" and give all of our Space technology to the Far East muslim countries.

Of course, I'm thinking we could geta few votes to send obama to Jupiter...what say ye?

Why not wait 100 years or so. By then space technology will have advanced to the point where we can safely ship it into the sun.

The sun won’t care.

What if the Jovians decided to dump it back on us?

Why waste it on Jupiter? We can ship it to the Sun. It would take less energy once the gravitational pull takes over.

The problem there is lifting it into space. Imagine a disaster like Challenger. I don’t know that they would have the technology down to a point where the risk is under 1% anytime soon. Especially with the clown cutting NASA’s budget.
