"In this case, we crushed iron and helium together under about 5–55 gigapascals of pressure and at temperatures of 1,000 Kelvin to nearly 3,000 Kelvin. Those pressures correspond to roughly ...

That’s why Pulsar exists.” Helium has some unique properties that make it particularly valuable, far beyond its most commonly known uses. It’s extremely light and nonreactive. NASA uses it ...

Helium is a very light gas, and most volatile gases have long since escaped the mantle, having been blown away during the giant impact that formed the moon or churned to the surface by the ...

Light gases like helium hung around in the gas-and-dust nebula that formed the solar system for only a few million years. "It's very much debated how long it took the Earth to form," Olson said.
