How is it that helium is a rare element needed for X-rays that we will run out of but is used for silly things like balloons and voice modifiers?
In: Chemistry
Helium was stored as a government essential gas, however policy changed so that storage was no longer regarded as essential so the store was sold off and people used it for balloons. Helium is constantly being created on Earth, but the gas is also lost to space, it may become more difficult to extract, however it isn’t going to “run out” https://youtu.be/FoyT-M3UuGs
