• The helium which we handle must have been put together at some time and some place. We do not argue with the critic who urges that the stars are not hot enough for this process; we tell him to go and find a hotter place.

• In a certain sense I made a living for five or six years out of that one star [υ Sagittarii] and it is still a fascinating, not understood, star. It's the first star in which you could clearly demonstrate an enormous difference in chemical composition from the sun. It had almost no hydrogen. It was made largely of helium, and had much too much nitrogen and neon. It's still a mystery in many ways ... But it was the first star ever analysed that had a different composition, and I started that area of spectroscopy in the late thirties.

• Un globo aerostático necesita mucho combustible para mantenerse en el aire, por lo que no se puede volar ni siquiera un día. Un globo de gas, que suele utilizar helio, tiene el problema de que el helio se enfría por la noche, cuando no le da el sol, y hay que echar lastre por la borda para que no salga a la superficie.

• What if I jumped out of an airplane with a couple of tanks of helium and one huge, un-inflated balloon? Then, while falling, I release the helium and fill the balloon. How long of a fall would I need in order for the balloon to slow me enough that I could land safely?

• Might it be the discovery of a distant civilization and our common cosmic origins that finally drives home the message of the bond among all humans. Whether we're born in San Francisco or Sudan or close to the heart of the Milky Way Galaxy, we are the products of a billion-year lineage of wandering stardust. We, all of us, are what happens when a primordial mixture of hydrogen and helium evolves for so long that it begins to ask where it came from.

• Chicken,' Josie said. 'Have you ever been in love?' Peter looked at Josie, and thought of how they had once tied a note with their addresses to a helium balloon and let it go in her backyard, certain it would reach Mars. Instead, they had received a letter from a widow who lived two blocks away. 'Yeah,' he said. 'I think so.

• Dentro de cinco siglos, salvo catástrofe inimaginable, la Luna será un bien inmueble desarrollado.

• Our entire universe emerged from a point smaller than a single atom. Space itself exploded in a cosmic fire, launching the expansion of the universe and giving birth to all the energy and all the matter we know today. I know that sounds crazy, but there’s strong observational evidence to support the Big Bang theory. And it includes the amount of helium in the cosmos and the glow of radio waves left over from the explosion.

• Esto es lo que pasa: alguien -generalmente una chica- tiene un espíritu libre, no se lleva muy bien con sus padres. Estos niños, son como globos de helio atados. Se tensan contra la cuerda y se tensan contra ella, y entonces algo sucede, y esa cuerda se corta, y simplemente se van flotando. Y tal vez nunca vuelvas a ver el globo... O puede que dentro de tres o cuatro años, o dentro de tres o cuatro días, los vientos dominantes se lleven el globo de vuelta a casa. . . Pero escucha, niño, esa cuerda se corta todo el tiempo.
