Q2 Yes indeed Now Mr G is coming around in thinking and I like it; helium is produced by many countries though they are available far away from us around the stars; Helio-centric greek word denoting dancing around the SUN and its by product was named as Helium. The current helium shortage is the fourth to occur since 2006 and is being caused by *shutdowns at several major helium producers*. The shortage has been exacerbated by the war in Ukraine, as Russia is one of the world's top suppliers of helium. Based on the technical analysis by cryptocurrency experts regarding the prices of Helium, in 2024, HNT is expected to have the following minimum and maximum prices: *about $21.91 and $27.33*, respectively. The average expected trading cost is $22.72. Investments in Helium shares are predicted as unfailing in 2022 analysis. What year will we run out of helium? The US currently supplies around 80 percent of the world's helium supplies. Richardson said it has taken *4.7 billion years* for the Earth to accumulate our helium reserves, which we will have exhausted within about a hundred years of the US's National Helium Reserve having been established in 1925 viz 2025. A renowned expert on helium says we are wasting our supplies of the inert gas helium and will run out within 25 to 30 years, which will have disastrous consequences for hospitals and industry. Professor of physics, Robert Richardson from Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, won the 1996 Nobel prize <https://phys.org/tags/nobel+prize/> for his work on superfluidity <https://phys.org/tags/superfluidity/> in helium <https://phys.org/tags/helium/>, and has issued a warning the supplies of helium are being used at an unprecedented rate and could be depleted within a generation.
Liquid helium is vital for its use in cooling the superconducting magnets <https://phys.org/tags/superconducting+magnets/> in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners. There is no substitute because no other substance has a lower boiling point. Helium is also vital in the manufacture of liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and fiber optics. In MRI scanners the helium is recycled, but often the gas <https://phys.org/tags/gas/> is wasted since it is thought of as a cheap gas, and as such is often used to fill party balloons and as a party trick distorting people's voices when it is inhaled. Professor Richardson warned the gas is not cheap because the supply is inexhaustible, but because of the Helium Privatisation Act passed in 1996 by the US Congress. The Act required the helium stores held underground near Amarillo in Texas to be sold off at a fixed rate by 2015 regardless of the market value, to pay off the original cost of the reserve. The Amarillo storage facility holds around half the Earth's stocks of helium: around a billion cubic meters of the gas. The US currently supplies around 80 percent of the world's helium supplies. In one lecture I heard being said the Lord Krishna was the helium having pervadfed in all the planet and space objects floating them all the time, as helium does in a baloon. अथवा बहुनैतेन किं ज्ञातेन तवार्जुन |विष्टभ्याहमिदं कृत्स्नमेकांशेन स्थितो जगत् || 42|| atha vā bahunaitena kiṁ jñātena tavārjuna viṣhṭabhyāham idaṁ kṛitsnam ekānśhena sthito jagat. AYURVEDAM READ WITH THE TREATISE OF VAISEHIKA OF KANADHA RISHI SPEAKS IN SANSKROIT VERSE AS UNDER , ATLEAST 5000 YEARS AGO, WHEN HELIUM WAS AVAILABLE AND PRESERVED WELL AS SEEN BELOW ONE BY ONE: Why do I call hydrogen THE space element? Here are supporting quotes: “Hydrogen is estimated to make up more than 90% of all the atoms — three quarters of the mass of the universe!“(2)“Hydrogen gas is so light that, uncombined, hydrogen will gain enough velocity from collisions with other gases that they will quickly be ejected from the atmosphere “(2)// Therefore, our understanding of Space = paramanu = H+ = not yet matter is still an option from Vaisheshika. Also, space is well described in Ayurveda as being nuclear energy. Energy is matter. Hydrogen is used to make nuclear energy. So, I feel confident that in the analogy of the five Ayurvedic elements to the Periodic Table, space IS matter, space is hydrogen protons, called “paramanu” by Kanaada. What is interesting too is that, just as in Vedic theory, hydrogen (space) goes on to make air: “Stellar hydrogen fusion processes release massive amounts of energy by combining hydrogens to form helium.”(2)[Ed: called “dvyanuka” or double atom by Kanaada] // “the second most abundant element in the known *Universe ”in** part because*“… all natural gas contains at least trace elements of helium.”(3)Electrical energy is huge here even with the complete “noble gas” helium, *because Almost** all helium in the Universe “is found in a *plasma <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_%28physics%29>* state, with properties quite different from those of atomic helium. In a plasma, helium’s electrons are not bound to its nucleus, resulting in very high electrical conductivity, even when the gas is only partially ionized.” **// { samskritha bharati text}. Hence helium was used long ago; preserved long ago; worried only today; now one can under stand the words of productions need advocated in Russia by our PM, since Russia has Helium and we are running short and we have to arise, awake and stop not. Relationship with Russia diplomacy.
