The discovery that helium and iron can mix at the temperatures and pressures found at the center of Earth could settle a long-standing debate over how our planet formed.

As a result, helium, the ultralight gas used to pressurise liquid rocket fuel, has become an emblem of engineering frailty. Now, Chinese scientists report they have harnessed that very flaw to ...

Curious how to turn a fallen tree into a cooking powerhouse? This step-by-step tutorial reveals the secrets behind crafting a ...

The diamond anvil crushed iron and helium together under conditions mimicking those inside the Earth, to create a new compound. These compounds remained stable when pressures were reduced.

Chinese scientists claim to have found a new way of injecting helium into rocket engines, which could be used to make missiles that are much harder to detect or intercept. The new technology was ...

A Pulsar Helium drill site as seen Jan. 13 near Babbitt, Minn. Canada-based Pulsar Helium has discovered extremely high concentrations of helium in tests of underground deposits. Helium is best ...

"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 ...

PINEDALE — The Bureau of Land Management is opening a 15-day public scoping for the Dry Piney Helium and Carbon Sequestration Project proposed on public, private, and state lands near LaBarge in ...

This is a high-strength container used to store helium gas, which is critical for pressurizing the rocket’s propellant tanks and ensuring proper fuel flow to its engines. UCLA astronomy ...
