While sitting on the throne reading the Daily Lunacy a
moon
citizen makes poop.
The poop goes to an accumulator, and when the
accumulation
reaches a specific mass it is compacted. The attached
catapult (to be designed by [8th]) launches the
desiccated,
compacted brown mass into
lunar orbit, to whiz around
and
around with all its previously-launched fellow poop blobs
in
much the same manner as Terran space trash. Upon
random
re-entry the poop will be distributed much like farm
manure.

He's envisioning it orbiting the moon in a degrading orbit
that eventually see's it hit the surface, presumably as part
of some long term moon terraforming project. |

I think it's more likely to have its orbit perturbed by the
earth each pass until it eventually breaks orbit & slingshots
off into the great black yonder or gets captured by the
earth's gravity & achieves reentry to the wrong object
though. |

But I'm no physicist & can't be bothered to work out the
orbital mechanics. |

Admittedly that's mostly because I wouldn't know how to. |
