A research team has achieved a significant breakthrough in determining fundamental properties of atomic nuclei. The team conducted laser spectroscopy experiments on muonic helium-3. Muonic helium-3 is ...

Scientists with NASA are launching enormous balloons, the size of a football stadium, from the Antarctic ice. They're carrying experiments on dark matter and other mysteries. Our next story takes us ...

Our next story takes us to the ice of Antarctica, where NASA scientists are launching gigantic balloons that will rise up way into the stratosphere, to near space. Some of these balloons are so big ...

Conventional helium production comes with enormous carbon emissions, so scientists are looking for alternatives in places like Yellowstone, Tanzania's Rukwa Rift and India's Bakreswar-Tantloi province ...

A helium reservoir with the highest concentrations ever seen could hold enough of the gas to address critical shortages in the U.S. affecting tech, medicine and space exploration. When you purchase ...

While probing single molecules or atoms typically requires liquid helium—a costly resource—to build a stable environment, a new development from a joint Chinese research team changes the game. By ...
