I’m sure there’s a perfectly good reason why we haven’t done this yet. Too expensive? Would launching it into the sun cause the smoke (if there is even smoke in space) to find its way back to Earth, therefore polluting the air?

This is an incredibly stupid question.

    Plus, launching that sort of payload is going to be insanely costly.

    And causes its own additional air pollution as part of the launch.
