Firing nuclear waste into the sun, placing it in Antarctic ice sheets so it sinks by its own heat to the bedrock, or putting it under Earth's crust so it is sucked to the molten core. These are three of the 14 options the government's advisers are considering to get rid of the UK's troublesome nuclear waste legacy.
All options are technically possible and many are potentially hazardous -- either to current generations or those yet unborn. Most also have political drawbacks and are expensive, around ?50 billion and counting, yet it is a problem the government has decided it must solve.
Last year it appointed a committee on radioactive waste management to re-examine all possibilities to find a publicly acceptable solution to the nuclear waste problem -- something that successive governments have failed to do for 50 years.
