1. A method of forming and disposing of at least one rock welded waste capsule, wherein the method comprises steps of:(a) forming rock side walls of the at least one rock welded waste capsule, wherein the rock side walls bound a cavity, wherein the cavity is configured to receive at least some amount of radioactive material;(b) forming a rock bottom of the at least one rock welded waste capsule, wherein the rock bottom is integral with a lower most portion of the rock side walls and the rock bottom is configured to prevent the at least some amount of radioactive material from falling out of the at least one rock welded waste capsule;(c) forming a rock cap that is shaped and sized to press fit to a top of the rock side walls to cover over the cavity; wherein the rock side walls, the rock bottom, and the rock cap are all substantially constructed from a same type of rock;(d) loading the at least some amount of radioactive material into the cavity;(e) rock welding the rock cap to the top of the rock side walls using a rock welding system that uses a resistive melting means and/or a millimeter wave melting means to melt the rock cap to the top of the rock side walls, wherein completion of the step (e) results in the at least one rock welded waste capsule being fully formed and sealed; and(f) inserting the at least one rock welded waste capsule from the step (e) into a wellbore that is at least partially located within a deep geological repository, wherein the deep geological repository is located at least 10,000 feet below a surface of the Earth. 2. The method according to claim 1, wherein an exterior of the at least one rock welded waste capsule is substantially shaped as a right cylinder or as a rectangular prism. 3. The method according to claim 1, wherein the cavity is substantially shaped as a right cylinder. 4. The method according to claim 1, wherein a length of the cavity is shorter than an overall exterior length of the at least one rock welded waste capsule. 5. The method according to claim 1, wherein the cavity has a fixed and a static diameter that is selected from a range of five inches to nine inches, plus or minus one inch. 6. The method according to claim 1, wherein an outside diameter or an outside width of the at least one rock welded waste capsule is fixed, static, and selected from a range of six inches to fifteen inches, plus or minus one inch. 7. The method according to claim 1, wherein the at least one rock welded waste capsule has a thickness of the side walls that is fixed and static and that is selected from a range of one inch to three inches, plus or minus one half inch. 8. The method according to claim 1, wherein the at least one rock welded waste capsule has an overall exterior length that is fixed and static and that is selected from a range of three feet to fifteen feet, plus or minus six inches. 9. The method according to claim 1, wherein the rock side walls and the rock bottom are formed from a same larger rock. 10. The method according to claim 1, wherein the radioactive material is selected from one or more of: an amount of plutonium, an amount of weapons grade plutonium, an amount of high level nuclear waste, an amount of uranium, an amount of depleted uranium, a nuclear fuel rod, a nuclear fuel rod assembly, a nuclear fuel rod subassembly, a portion of the nuclear fuel rod, a portion of the nuclear rod assembly, a portion of the nuclear fuel rod subassembly, radioactive pellets, derivatives thereof, combinations thereof, or portions thereof. 11. The method according to claim 1, wherein the same type of rock is selected from granite or another igneous rock. 12. The method according to claim 1, wherein the rock welding system comprises heater elements, a controller, and cables; wherein the cables operationally link the heater elements to the controller; wherein heater elements comprise the resistive melting means and/or the millimeter wave melting means. 13. The method according to claim 12, wherein during the step (e), the controller directs electrical power from an electrical power source to the heater elements, via the cables, so that the heater elements emit heat directed at an external junction of where the rock cap is in physical communication with the top of the rock side walls resulting in melting and welding of the rock cap to the top of the rock side walls. 14. The method according to claim 12, wherein during the step (e), the heater elements are in physical communication with an external junction of where the rock cap is press fit to the top of the rock side walls. 15. The method according to claim 14, wherein prior to the step (f), the heater elements are removed from proximity with respect to the at least one rock welded waste capsule. 16. The method according to claim 1, wherein prior to the step (f), the method further comprises a step of cooling the at least one rock welded waste capsule using a cooling system that is directed at removing at least some heat from the at least one rock welded waste capsule. 17. The method according to claim 16, wherein the step of cooling occurs during the step (e) and/or after the step (e). 18. The method according to claim 16, wherein prior to the step (f), the cooling system is removed from proximity with respect to the at least one rock welded waste capsule. 19. The method according to claim 1, wherein after the step (d) but before the step (e), the method further comprises a step of loading an amount of insulating material into the cavity to protect the at least some amount of radioactive material from heat during the step (e). 20. The method according to claim 1, wherein the rock side walls in the step (a) are formed from two or more segments of elongate rock members with hollow interiors that are rocked welded together in an end to end fashion, using the rock welding system or using another rock welding system, wherein the cavity is formed from the hollow interiors.
