Thousands of years. That’s good, because when it runs out, it’s gone, into space.

We should follow it then, heheh. Cheap fuel pump design utilizes pressurized helium, beats turbo pumps in certain useful scale regimes: https://rocketfuelpump.com

"Thousands of years. That’s good, because when it runs out, it’s gone, into space."

From the article: "Much of the helium present today is a result of radioactive decay of elements such as uranium."

Maybe we could bury our nuclear waste and harvest the helium. Two birds?
