Otherwise the junk would assume ellyptical orbit as soon as you stop pushing and would become another huge dangerous asteroid swirling in the close proximity of Earth.
I precisely meant pushing it with rocket. Just as soon, as you turn off it's engine, you will get an object swirling in an ellyptical orbit around the Sun because its huge initial velocity (which it gets from Earth) wouldn't let it fall down.
