How Helium Is Found
the discovery of helium substance is a kind of detective story in scientific fields in 1868, a scholar of natural sciences in the United Kingdom named Sir, Norman Lockyer are researching of the Sun with some sort of tool that is named "star were".

this tool provides the ability to spectroscopes experts to identify the chemical elements of any substance, any substance that forms a sort of a line on spectrum.
at the time he responds to strange line in the spectrum of being conscientious that, it comes from a substance, an elements that has not even known people on this Earth, the new elements is called "helium", derived from the word Greece "helios" meaning "Sun".
then the experts of science experiment more to know and keep track of whether the element there is on this Earth, just time, after doing very much research and experiments, they found that there were helium in our atmosphere, but very few in number so in the 250.000 cubic feet of air there is only one cubic feet of helium.

other experiments being done and continue to do the people and generate discovery that radium issue the substance helium, when radium was emitting rays, one form of this ray was "the alpha rays", i.e the helium atoms move with the speed is incredible.
helium turned out to be a very valuable element is helium is very light so it has the power to its busses make hovering something in the air, because helium was not sensitive to fire, then it is appropriate when it is used for a wide variety of aircraft which can be controlled from the ground, the air force the importance, measuring the weather balloon, and various other needs.
the Government of the United State assumed that helium was very important so they are very hard and it's difficult to find the source of helium in it's natural environment, in certain parts of the country such as the United States was in Texas, New Mexico. Kansas, There are elements of natural gas, has been found by that experts that this gas contains one or two percent helium.

because there is not other source of helium, which can match the source, then the United State is the single unit country in the world that has a supply of helium in state that is very abundant, this helium originally worth around 2,000 dollars per cubic feet of helium, these substances are now sold with just three pieces of currency and a half Penny to one cubic feet.
Benefits Of Helium
did you know that helium is used also for the purposes of making medicines? helium is used as helper tool for people suffering from asthma which to breathe more relief, please read What Is Asthma and Symptoms Of Asthma
also to the diver and to miners in the mine caves provided a bit of a mixture of helium and oxygen for breathing purposes so that they do not feel suffocated and not suffocation.
