Ever heard of a gravitational slingshot?

We aren't exploding the nuclear waste in the form of a bomb when we launch it via satellite. It could also just fall into the ocean in case of a failed launch, where it probably won't be a problem.

A gravitational slingshot short of Jupiter would not suffice, and maybe not then.
