Helium-3 (3He) isotope is extremely rare on Earth. Most of our supply comes indirectly from tritium (3H)decay in nuclear stockpiles, producing only modest quantities. Likewise a minor amount of 4He isotope is collected as a by-product of big companies tapping natural gas. For most people this is not a topic of much interest, so why... Continue Reading →
Helium is an inert gas, is super light, is the second most abundant element in the universe (after hydrogen), yet on Earth, Helium is scarce, is a non-renewable resource and is very expensive to produce.One of its isotopes even more rare an precious is Helium-3. If we could somehow get more Helium-3, our dream about... Continue Reading →
Helium is something of a bizarre contradiction here on Earth. Although it’s the 2nd most abundant element in the universe as a whole, combining with hydrogen (the most abundant) to form an estimated 99% of all known matter that’s out there… helium is becoming increasingly rare on Earth. The main reason for that is because... Continue Reading →
In the universe there is a lot of stuff we know nothing about or we know very little. One of them is the thing called Antimatter. We only discovered its existence almost a century ago. Today we know it is there, but more than some basic characteristic properties just enough to have a clue about it,... Continue Reading →
