Helium is the second lightest element and is the second most abundant in the observable Universe. Most helium was formed during the Big Bang, but new helium is being created as a result of the nuclear fusion of hydrogen in stars. Helium is relatively rare and is created by the natural radioactive decay of some elements, as alpha particles that are emitted consist of helium nuclei.

Helium is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, non-toxic, inert monatomic chemical element that heads the noble gas group in the periodic table and whose atomic number is 2. Its boiling and melting points are the lowest among the elements and it exists only as a gas except in extreme conditions. Accumulated in a number of ice asteroid fields around [[Sirius]], helium is required for a number of industries along with neon, and is mined in small to medium quantities by independent suppliers.

Neutral helium at standard conditions is non-toxic, plays no biological role and is found in trace amounts in human blood. If enough helium is inhaled that oxygen needed for normal respiration is replaced asphyxia is possible. The safety issues for cryogenic helium are similar to those of liquid nitrogen; its extremely low temperatures can result in cold burns and the liquid to gas expansion ratio can cause explosions if no pressure-relief devices are installed.

Mineable

Helium is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, non-toxic, inert monatomic chemical element that heads the noble gas group in the periodic table and whose atomic number is 2. Its boiling and melting points are the lowest among the elements and it exists only as a gas except in extreme conditions. Accumulated in a number of ice asteroid fields around Sirius, helium is required for a number of industries along with neon, and is mined in small to medium quantities by independent suppliers.


Buy/Sell Locations

The following bases either sell the item, or buy the item at a non-default price (possibly lower).

Mining Locations

Mining surveys have revealed the following fields for this commodity. Any ship can extract the resource at half the displayed rate, while factions that specialize in these resources can get several times more. Aggressive mining will also cause the drop-rate to decrease.

Disclaimer

The data listed on this page was generated from the default server configuration files on 2/04/2019. Server-side data may be changed on any server at any time, without any notice to the user community. The only authoritative source for in-game data is the game itself.
In addition, the drop rates listed here do not incorporate any faction mining bonuses that may be applicable. With the proper ID, IFF, and mining vessel, your yield may be much higher.
