Jupiter, the largest planet in our Solar System. A gas giant capable of sucking up and condensing millions of tons of space debris. So why don't we use it to solve one of the Earth's stinkiest problems? Our trash. What if we decided to send the world's garbage up into space and launch it into Jupiter?
How would we manage to send this much trash into space? And would this help our problem or make everything worse?

What if we dumped our trash in sun?
Your hindi channel not uploading videos 😔
So much longer ads 😢 🤨
What if the whole worlds atmosphere was contained in glass
Half of the freaking video is a commercial. 👎
If you want to dispose of all the garbage from Earth, then it actually makes more sense to send it directly to our central star. It doesn't even have to get there to burn completely.
I just wanna do it for the fun 😁
Indeed, although it would take a bit of time to reach the Sun even if we only got to what you consider 'burning' distance. The Sun is over 92 millions miles away from Earth and sending anything there or within close proximity of the Sun would be quite a chore.
@@FATillery The average distance between Jupiter and Earth is 391 million miles. That would be even further than the Sun. It's just as much effort anyway.
Did they or someone else already do a vid about the trash dumping to the sun, seems like they choose a diff location probably because of
Not that easy. Going directly into a star is quite difficult to do. Even pointing a rocket directly towards it is just going to put you into orbit. There's a reason we weren't able to even probe the sun until VERY recently.
Edit: In fact, another What If video explores just that!
Best way to reduce trash is by having better recycling facilities.
Recycling is scam
I just learned plastic recycling has been a lie this whole time. They don't recycle even 2 % of it
@@Rushi_83lol yeah cause the companies just like to give away money to people who take their recyclables to sell 😆
Or to actually recycle
Or send it to a place where it is completely incinerated to atoms,the sun, although that would be really hard
Venus or the Sun might work too. They're both basically two different versions of hell. A mission every 50 years or so would be good enough
Yeah, I was thinking the same too. I know this is just a hypothetical "what if" scenario, but it seems like it would be much easier to launch the garbage into Venus. Even dumping on Mars would be easier than on Jupiter, unless mankind plans to colonize it, in which case we'd just be polluting our future homeland.
Plus Venus is closer
People would like to terraform Venus so it's much better to not throw trash on venus
@@_.zxc._as if they terraform that planet its impossilble
It would make much more sense to terraform Mars or one of Saturn's or Jupiter's moons. Venus would be tough. I don't even know how we could get enough water there to sustain life. Then there's the crazy greenhouse effect and lack of a magnetic field. Humanity might as well give up if we ever get to a point when we need to terraform Venus.
Earth: Full of trash we don't have space anymore. Any ideas? Let's trash the other planets in our solar system. Problem solved 🤣
You can't "trash" a gaseous planet.
It's just moving molecules around.
Jupiter's giant storm (that big red spot) is bigger than our whole planet.
We need to get rid of as much non degradable plastic as possible.
Or we can recycle them into something that is usable
@@sa34w The problem is breaking it down into something that can be reused. There is a microbe that 'eats' non-degradable plastic, but it takes an extremely long time.
Volcanoes.
Everything can get destroyed. High pressure usually is all you need to rip something apart
Two things:
1 We don't need to send all the trash.
2 Is it possible to incinerate the same trash in the rocketship to fuel itself to reach Jupiter?
Star Trek Voyager did an episode of alien civilization dumping their toxic waste in space. 5th season and the episode is called Night.
Sending trash away would make 100% sure we deplete our planet's resources at some point
Exactly, recycling wouldn't be no longer a thing.
This is so mercilessly devoid of value.
Why Jupiter? Venus is much closer and it can melt our trashes to ashes in minutes.
It’s a what if bud what we’re u expecting
We trashed earth. Wich planet is next?
We are already littering Mars with Drones and all the debri from the packaging to set the drones on Mars like thousands of rubber balls to soften the landing and parachutes.
ur anus
What if a ufo windshield was hit by a bag full of adult diapers
😂
😂😂😂
Its not been proven that Jupiter doesn't have a solid surface. If you went deep enough, you may find one
You’d find more horribleness and we should just use our volcanoes
The core is the only solid you can find
And i'm pretty sure there's a ocean of hydrogen and stuff
Space is a place that blowhard scientist can use hypotheses as fact and everyone just nods
Jupiter: I’m not a trash can
Venus do
Waf
Beyond that, it would also mean getting rid of some resources like iron that are in limited quantity on Earth with no way so get them back.
Flying over active volcanoes is a bad idea. The smoke is abrasive and if it gets into an aircraft engine it can melt.
Imagine all the trash flying in Jupiter's never-ending storm slowly decays, one day, it'll create an atmosphere around the gas giant.. so smelly that passing space ship would be bombarded with the atoms, and once it docks, the whole space station will gag and suffocate. 🤪🤪
90% of the trash should be recycled
impossible.
Everything is recyclable just got to find someone to do it and not worry about pollution it causes on top of that
@@lizard9285 Use an electric arc to turn the garbage into fully ionized plasma, then force that through a magnetic field to sort the elements. The reason we don't currently do that is that it would be energy intensive, but certainly less so than sending it off-planet, and you get to reuse the material.
we need nanobots to deconstruct the trash down to the atomic level. The new atomic sized material can then be used to create more nanobots and/or used for near instantaneous construction from the atomic level to skyscraper scale, using a swarm of self replicating sentient nanobots. Give them like a hivemind...maybe link that hivemind swarm of nanobots to a human operator through a neurallink implant or something similar.
Hippy!
A volcano would be better" everything from the earth is the earth, everything is stardust.
I believe they already did a What If on that one
@@danielhall574& That Was A Bad Bad 😅 Idea 💡
Interesting, I heard Uranus is dumping all over the cosmos.
OOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH
The Jupiter disease concern is completely absurd lol.
Bruh just sending it to the sun would be quicker than throwing it to Jupiter!
until it reaches Jupiter when we check our telescope:
What is that? A new planet? Oh wait it's just our trash we send to space.
Next idea:"What if we dumped our trash into Uranus"
That's a good idea. We should actually start sending the trash towards the Sun.
(Just kidding. I know we need rockets for that which will end up polluting earth even more)
"The landfills were full. New Jersey was full!"
Please do what if the moon was made of cheese 🧀
They tried shipping their trash into space on Futurama. It came back to them years later..
Before i die. I really wan't to know how everything start or who created everything.
Trash cones from earth. If you send it somewhere else youre losing earth. We need to keep it here to go back to earth. So we'll always have it. Those molecules are needed.
We can still recycle, but maybe we can launch things like radioactive waste, and other non-recycleable products.
That's pretty stupid, already paying too much for trash removal and can't imagine the expense of that.
🤣🤣🤣🤣"maybe we could let them figure out our problem"🤣🤣🤣 you crazy
Dumping trash in Jupiter would be a far riskier challenge than dumping in a volcano.
Most practical solution is get them at sun rays,before reach it vaporizes
i think sending it to the Venus is the best idea
Indeed.
And if make massive cities on massive towers to exploit the part of Venus's atmosphere has Earth pressures and temperatures we can just chuck off the non recyclable garbage like plastic.
If we one day get a Star Destroyer into the orbit, trash can be thrown out very easily and effectively but still will be an expensive thing to do
When we literally can’t leave earth but yet of course it’s a thought
The energy cost alone would be the 1st and biggest problem for this.
Actually, we are not running out of places to bury garbage. Drive from Flagstaff to Barstow and you will see just one part of a desolate and uninhabited land perfect for a garbage dump. We could load it onto trains, and dump it in the vast deserts using current tech. And the Earth overall has plenty of unused land that would easily accomodate a dump. The problem is that no one wants to see their garbage bill go up to haul it out to some uninhabited place. That, and we have those with axes to grind that we are "running out of space."
So until humans occupy or farm every conceivable inch of space, the technology of waste disposal won't change. And if we ever get that populated, mankind's war like nature will see to it that we reduce ourselves to the point we won't worry about where our garbage is dumped. We are a... fallen species and imperfect. Our solutions will always be imperfect.
Better idea: if we were going to put that much mass into space, it would be better to use it in some way. Perhaps as some type of rebar or aggregate for construction materials. Or, if it were massive enough, possibly to aid in the deflection/redirection of earthbound asteroids.
We need a massive antigravity launch platform for that.
01:35 Somehow the beautiful, contrasting eye candy they just threw in there made me feel better about the sad truth of human littering; kinda had the same effect as a cigarette ad... Thanx, What If?, lol. 😅😔😵💫
Ur vids are super interesting and u never run out of ideas!
U deserves 10 mil subs ❤
Awesome video. Been playing The Ants Underground Kingdom since the lockdown. It is still fun playing this game to this day.
It’s a cost issue the average residential garbage route is about 19 tons of trash and that’s weekly and that’s about 800-900 homes
sure, if you can safely get it launched into space (no breakup in earth's orbit) and make it to Jupiter, but should also be scouting asteroids/space rocks for replacement minerals/resources so we aren't just launching stinky resources away and not replenishing. Not like we got replicator tech to just replace the debris.
So why not volcanoes, why does it need to be way out there, they just wanted to do something crazy
Not trash from earth. But passing spaceships could dump their toxic waste before returning home .
Hi I am here in
Same here 😂
who cares
@@bewtnewt💀
@@bewtnewt it doesn't matter to me, whether you care or not.
Hi
Fascinating, but the idea of trash isn't what limits consumption. It's how much people want something balanced by how much is available. IE Supply-Demand
And even if our trash was launched into jupiter, the average person would still have to gather their own, take it out on collection day, etc. You'd still need to clean up your own messes which is another argument against the premise.
But it would eliminate all bias towards nuclear power. All waste can go to jupiter, and there's plenty of power for liftoff!
That's a slippery slope
Best way is that the garbage should be left directly in the space.
That'll mean junk interfering with satellites, communication, and launches... or worse, junk re-entering the atmosphere. We don't want residue drifting around up there, and we definitely don't want hunks of junk imitating meteorites and impacting with the surface.
Na because we already got a clutter orbit around earth so that would only make it worse
@@EMAC220 Yeah, thats true. What about if we dump it on venus? Its nearer to earth than jupiter plus it doesn't support life due to it's high temperature.
Dump it in space, create a ring around earth because the trash will orbit, and thus with enough trash lower the temperature of earth
@@majormarketing6552 How do you figure? The heat isn't rising because the sun is beaming down; the heat is rising because the atmospheric carbon, methane and ozone layers are so thick, they're trapping heat in the upper atmosphere. Having *more* junk in the upper atmosphere isn't going to change that, but it would increase the risk of trash being pulled back down to the surface in the form of flaming debris.
I just watched some spin launch videos. If they get that to work, it would help reduce cost to get to earth orbit.
You want Jupiter ants? Because that's how you get Jupiter ants.
If we find a way to recycle to the point where all trash is broken down to its molecular level and then incinerated, then there has to a way to harness the energy & use it. Sounds silly, but Mr. Fusion might not be too far off.
I wish science could simply develop a way to disintegrate garbage into nothing.
And if garbage rocket fails in space then we will have our own Ring like Saturn 🪐.!
what if bears evolved like humans?
I`m thinking a better idea would be to shoot all the space junk surrounding earth into Jupiter , on the other hand , maybe we should shoot it into a big crater on the moon , it could then possibly have some salvage/recycling value if and when we get a base on the moon ???
WOW !!!!!!!!!! 😲 THESE THINGS ARE LITERALLY SOMETHING INSAAAAAANE 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉.
Imagine dumping our trash in some other planet and unknown habitants of that planet wage a war against humans of earth for dumping trash in their backyard,an interplanetary war over dumping trash😂😂
I think that we would just piss off the Jovians and they would move up their invasion plans.
What sense is there in sending trash six AU to Jupiter instead of one AU to the sun? It's like flying East from NY to LA instead of flying West. Cheers.....
Around a couple years ago, this channel destroyed my whole entire childhood by telling me this earth will explode even though it was in billions of years
Probably dump it in Venus, since Jupiter is quite a distance from Earth
How about the cost of thousands of enormous rockets and fuel? And every element we throw away, it can't be used and recycled again.
Recycling should be kept on this planet and yes throw trash into another planet or space
Let’s not worry about Decontaminate
I always wondered if we could send waste from our nuclear power plants to the Sun.
I relate this when you say THIS IS WHAT IF
Aliens sent their trash to this planet and thats what created everything. 😂
6:38 Magnetic Drive
Did I just hear that Jupiter ain’t got a surface?! Damn! That’s one gigantic ball of gas
recycling is still the best method
But there are no aliens because life can’t form on a gas giant right?
Jupiter the trash giant, lol.
Jupiter doesn't seem like a trash bin to me.
I was thinking instead of Jupitor why not transport our trash outside our own orbit and launch it back to Earth? Would the trash entering our atmosphere burn all the trash just like Jupitors atmoshere will upon entering? Actually now that I'm writing this I thing the cost would be the roughly the same. Or alittle cheaper. I mean trash like plastic and other debri that can burn in our atmoshere when entering I bet that would eliminate half the trash on our planet.
did you take in count the potential toxic, dangerous fumes it will created from the burning process? Some of them will remain in the atmosphere, while others will fall down with the rain and be absorbed by the plants that we eat. Or they can combine with water, creating acidic compounds. Or radioactive materials and you have a radioactive rainfall. even if we dont burn dangerous materials, it can still lead to an increase in air fine particulate mater count.
I was literally asking myself this question this morning!!! What are the chances?😂
Nest video : WHAT IF SPACE FILLED WITH BREATHABLE GAS
Odds of hitting an asteroid between here and Jupiter would be close to zero......space is really, really, really big and the asteroids are about a half a million miles apart on average
Can we launch shovelware like Ants Kingdom to Jupiter too?
In the middle of the video the subtitles become unsynchronized
Why not load it into a canno to the trash into orbit then it will be pulled back into obit and gravity and atmosphere will burn it up
If we send trash to the sun wouldn't that offset things and have a potential to create sun flares?
The "trash" on Earth came from Earth. If you send it to Space, the Earth will eventually be hollow.
What if you get someone to transport the trash to Jupiter?
Amazing
What if...We are the evolved trash of another planet?
All that needs to be done is to reduce consumption and avoid recycling. We have to use raw materials much more carefully.
What if we dropped it on Venus? It's closer by.
Sure sure, my idea of Supermaning 4 the trash into the Sun idea is CRAZY! Shorter path to incinerate it on Venus..
We could also send the trash to Venus.
We can dump the entire earth into Jupiter and nothing will happen
It would be easier & faster for us to shoot our trash at the Sun, instead of Jupiter.
Sun: 92.9 million miles away
Jupiter: 540.7 million miles away
Plus, the trash would completely burn up way before it actually came into contact with the sun. Probably reaching mercuries orbit distance would be sufficient. Another benefit would be the sun having a far greater gravity pull so the closer the trash got there, the less we’d have to nudge it.
Send it to the Sun
I was about to say beacuse the rocket whould burn before it whould get there but so the trahs will 😮 u have a point
I love your what if t shirt, I wish to have one for myself 😍😍
But that planet will become tourist destination in the future. Total Recall.
The cost per kilo of sending stuff into space means we're better of trying to deal with this trash here by recycling or (and i might get hate for this) just burning it and dealing with its emissions
been saying since 8th grade science why don’t we just send all our trash to space
Send it to Venus it's closer and we will never go there.
