How do Helium cannisters expire after a year? If you don't use it, it should last forever. Centuries even? Is it some kind of corrosion over time?
>>16840821Read up on why blimps need a constant refill. Some kind of voodoo about atoms slipping through holes.

>>16840821literally googlable question, this post made me irrationally angry
>>16840821No, its that you'd have to perma seal the cannister to stop it from leaking out
>>16840828Not an argument.
>>16840821Helium (and Hydrogen) are smallest atoms/molecules which means they can pass to any seals and even diffuse through solid matter. That's why hydrogen corrosion is a thing. Hydrogen penetrates steel and sticks inside making it brittle

That is why hydrogen is a meme and should stored as methane instead.All you need is an efficient way to extract CO2 from air.
>>16840821Your car's fuel tank will work great for this.
>>16841636why dont we contain it with electrical shocks so it stays in line
>>16842215Hydrogen is based, it's the absolute state of material science that's a total meme.
>>16842215Since hydrogen is sourced from methane it is already being done sort of

>>16840821Entropy tells us nothing we call a thing is 100% stable. Everything eventually trends towards uniformity. It’s just a question of how stable it is without ever being completely stable.
>>16840823That was just proven with some trick with quantum physics and wires and earned a couple very smart hacks some Nobel Prizes
