Of course I know it needs to be stored somewhere but it should be far away from any living thing. It seems to me that the problem of storing this product should have been decided before it was time to store it, but that is neither here nor there at this time.

Is it not possible to send it into space far from earth or even store it on the moon since it is close yet still very far away? We send ships to space often, I know it is expensive but storing it on the earth is even more expensive in the aspect of humans, animals and the very place we live. This is our only home and if we mess it up even more than we already have we are doomed.

Thank you for listening to my opinion.
