Honestly this mission never made sense to me. Why dont they just throw it down the planet / gas giant and let it burn up in the atmospwhere, or just jettison it into space, space is so vast that you can jettison that stuff for a million years and it still wouldnt be a polution problem

Actually I think that poo will become a valuable asset in that far distant future
Have you not seen "Martian" ? Someone elses poo saved Matts live! 
I believe an amusing ditty was written with your plight in mind

I suggest you do not play this in the office or within earshot of minors...
Funny thing is, on a space station it would actually be useful provided you didn't ship it off to someplace else. Biowaste, not just poo would be part of a closed loop being reused to provide food and water. In space biowaste would not be wast at all but a valuable rescource...
It's still not the most glamorous cargo but...

'biowaste' includes corpses, one imagines.
I'd prefer the corpses shipped back to the bubble than to eat soylant green...

A typical Day at the Mission Board office :
CMDR, we've got a Mission offer for you - and you'll be delighted that it pays well.
Color me intrigued - but not enthusiastic. What is it?
Let's just say it's Cargo that needs to leave this Sector.
Hmm... what's the catch?
Hostile Ships might be sent against you.
Hmkay, that's no news. But what's the Catch ??
The Mission pays you to deliver the Cargo - not for asking questions. 2.8 Million Credits. Do you agree?
Color me interested now. Can you at least tell me the tonnage and Cargo type? Credits aside - I want to know what enters and what leaves the Cargo hold of my Ship.
*pauses* It's Biowaste, CMDR. Just Biowaste, 80tons. All scanned, tagged and ready to Ship. 100% Legal.
.... Why would someone pay 2.8 Milllion to get Biowaste hauled over *checks Contract* 90 Lightyears? And who would send Ships to stop... Biowaste ??!
CMDR... *now holds a Plasma Repeater* We don't pay you to ask Questions. Do you - or do you not - accept this Contract?
We have rival Factions in this System and they make attempts to intervene once in a while. That should be no news to you.
*gulp* Fine then. "Clean" Biowaste, 90LY. 2.8M Credits. Can do.
Good. We expect you to fulfill the Contract within 24 hours. *has put Plasma Repeater back below his Table*
*walks towards door* ... Those Factions. This surely has nothing to do with the recent disappearance of some of their representatives, right?
*looks into the Barrel of a now charged Plasma Repeater* ....... Never mind..... *leaves room and heads right for the dock*

It may be poop to you...... but it's their bread and butter.
Because agrar economics use biowaste for the plants as fertilizer. Nothing to waste in space
I like when I'm hauling biowaste and an NPC pirate comes along talking about all my tasty cargo. Tasty? Really? Silly pirates.
Just a little reminder for all you Sothis/Ceos truckers; all odors are particulate
Doo-doo never $melled $o $weet . . . try thinking of it as "compost" instead. You will notice that most if not all doo-doo delivery missions go to Agricultural stations where apparently, they make everything out of it.

I always figured a canister of doo-doo was only unique for the cadaver it contained!
From the Merriam Webster dictionary:
Definition of biowaste
: waste (as manure, sawdust, or food scraps) that is composed chiefly of organic matter
In other words, it's not just poop, it can be any kind of organic matter. And sure, Agricultural worlds use it for many things.
Myself, I'm a freelancer, I'll haul anything if it pays well, and I'm not busy

If I am flying along minding my own business in a freshly serviced ship, and a frozen poo that has been jettisoned, hits my canopy, you best believe somebody will be getting it back in the mail with interest!
