The ultimate secrets of EARTH WITHOUT HELIUM


In just five seconds without helium, party  balloon filler upper it's the second most abundant element in the universe and the second lightest too behind only hydrogen. What would the loss of helium do to your body? How would the rest of the universe react to this molecular on-off switch? Could this bring about the end of our solar system? These are somewhat if scenarios, and here's what would happen if all helium disappeared for five seconds. 

Introduction to helium

Since it was first discovered in 1868 by astronomers who saw a yellow light in the sun's Corona during a solar eclipse, helium can be found on both planets and moons, but most of all stars. It was named after the Greek god Helios, and even though you don't need this gas for biological functions, it's an essential component of daily life because it's used in lasers, barcode readers, and medical equipment like MRI scans.The moment that helium disappears from the universe, however, you'd barely notice anything because our atmosphere contains almost no helium, so you'd keep on breathing without any problems. However, hopefully, you weren't in the middle of an MRI scan at the time all of this goes down because these use a lot of energy and have super-high energy requirements.

Without the liquid helium's minus 269 degrees Celsius coolness pouring down the wires, the conducting magnets would heat up and if you were in the machine at this time, you could suffer significant injuries. The Large Hadron Collider operated by Jeon's Large Hadron Collider would immediately encounter a similar issue, except that 120 tonnes of liquid helium would have suddenly vanished, and the magnets would now be getting hotter Steering. The worst scenario would be the rapid deflation of every birthday balloon on the planet, which would result in many sorrowful children.

without helium, the sun

However, even this wouldn't be the worst scenario because none of these issues compare to what would start happening throughout the rest of the universe once all the helium in the core of our sun disappeared. Helium is produced by the nuclear fusion of hydrogen atoms, and not just a little either.It's a good thing that the sun's powerful gravitational pull and the attraction of the gas mantles surrounding the core provide enough of a balance to keep things from blowing up. Because if all the helium disappeared, a significant portion of the Sun's mass would be lost and with that, it would have less mass. However, if all the helium vanished, a large portion of the Sun's mass would be gone and with that, it would have less mass valuable equilibrium. Then, with any luck, this wouldn't happen since the five seconds would be up and our sun would retain. Its pressure as all of its helium is once again returned to its proper place, preventing an explosion that would be terrible news for you and everyone else back on Earth. Yes, I'm sure MRIs and the Large Hadron Collider could be out of commission for a while, but at least you could spend the rest of your life thanking your lucky stars. However, be aware of which stars are looking up because the night sky might become permanently darker.

You'd also be fortunate that it was helium that disappeared from the universe for five seconds, at least it wasn't something a bit more ascent Like Oxygen, but that's a story for another what if? Some Stars didn't fare as well as our own, and as their light travels, you could see evidence of their explosions for many years to come.
