Due to the abundance of hydrogen and helium in the outer planets of the Solar System, atmospheric mining may be easier than mining terrestrial surfaces.
Early morning on April 1, 2011, San Diego based political activist Mark Dice tied a large silver helium "surveillance blimp" to the statue which had "Big Brother is Watching You" painted on the side, and an oversized (cardboard) security camera hanging from the bottom.
He was attending a 1982 Rolling Stones concert at the Waldbühne (the "Forest Theatre") in West Berlin, when they released a large mass of helium balloons into the air.
Rolex invented and introduced the first dive watches with a helium release valve in 1969, which prevented this helium buildup.
•
Omega also eventually introduced a helium release valve, in its Seamaster watch.
It is a metal-poor star, which means it has a low abundance of elements heavier than helium.
Helium ionization detector (HID) -- uses a radioactive source to produce helium ions, which in turn ionize the components
•
Discharge ionization detector (DID) -- uses an electric spark source to produce helium ions, which in turn ionize the components
A consumer application of the red HeNe laser is the LaserDisc player, made Pioneer.
In the last two years new features have been developed using Java and the Ruby code base is considered legacy.
"Helium tremors" were first widely described in 1965 by Royal Navy physiologist Peter B. Bennett, who also founded the Divers Alert Network.
Hooke's atom, also known as harmonium or hookium, refers to an artificial helium-like atom where the Coulombic electron-nucleus interaction potential is
After the destruction of the Hindenburg, the nearly-completed LZ-130 Graf Zeppelin was redesigned as a helium-filled ship, although, owing to geo-political considerations, the American helium was not available.
Isobaric Counterdiffusion was first described by Graves, Idicula, Lambertsen, and Quinn in 1973 in subjects who breathed one inert gas mixture (nitrogen or neon) while being surrounded by another (helium).
He was awarded the Rumford Medal in 1980 in "recognition of his discovery of the quantum of circulation in superfluid helium and his development of new techniques for precise measurements within liquid helium."
The core of the nebula does not have a distinctly visible structure in formation and is mostly composed of ionized Helium.
As sensors the most sensitive magnetic sensors presently available, Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices (SQUID), which are cooled down to 4 K (-269 °C) with liquid helium, are used to acquire the signals.
Starting in 1980, Gazdzicki participated in the SKM200 experiment at the Dubna Synchrophasotron, focusing on the investigation of hadron production in (He-Mg)+(Li-Pb) collisions at 4.5A GeV using a streamer chamber.
As a producer, he is probably best known for his work with R.E.M. from 1981 through 1984, though he has also worked with many other acts including Ben Folds Five, Pylon, Helium, Pavement, Suzanne Vega, Game Theory, Marshall Crenshaw, The Connells, Velvet Crush, Ken Stringfellow (of The Posies), and Birds of Avalon.
In 2012 Thompson created a helium-filled copy of a sculpture by Michael Heizer, for an official Fourth of July float for the Aspen Art Museum.
Similarly, Eliom is a homophone of Hélium (the chemical element Helium).
The West Kostelany deposit is only 70% methane, and is high in helium and argon, which can be extracted in industrial quantities.
Known as a Charged Particle Accelerator (CPA), the nuclear accelerator is a 250 keV Ion accelerator which can deliver all Gaseous ions such as +H, +N, +O, +He, +Ne, +Ar, +Kr, +Xe or molecular ions.
On 1 December 2008, the Nova 9 helium balloon took two space-suited teddies close to the edge of space from the grounds of Churchill College, Cambridge.
The Office of Naval Research (USA ONR) used the Loki in some of its Rockoon launches, lofting the Loki to high altitudes on a helium balloon before firing, for upper atmosphere research.
This quantum interference in many body system has been described using quantum mechanics by Gregor Wentzel, for the interpretation of the Auger effect, by Ettore Majorana for the dissociation processes and quasi bound states, by Ugo Fano for the atomic auto-ionization states in the continuum of helium atomic spectrum and by Victor Frederick Weisskopf.
Arriving on Barsoom, the Sheas seek out the aid of the royal family of the city-state of Helium, which includes Burroughs' protagonist, the transplanted earthman John Carter.
In October 2005, a helium balloon launched at a school fete on 24 September 2005, was found by 53 year old Isak Toyra in Karesuando, Sweden who sent it back to the school, and claimed a £10 prize.
Prior to 2007, many theorists performed calculations indicating that vacancies cannot exist at zero temperature in solid helium-4.
In the late 21st century even some of Saturn's moons have been settled as a base for that planet's Helium-3 scooping operations.
He was co-inventor of the first gas laser (the helium-neon laser) at Bell Laboratories in Murray Hill, New Jersey, discovered the argon ion laser, was first to observe spectral hole burning effects in gas lasers, and created a theory of hole burning effects on laser oscillation.
