  2. An extremely rare type of helium that was created soon after the Big Bang is leaking out of Earth's metallic core, a new modeling study suggests. The vast majority of this gas in the universe, called helium-3, is primordial and was created just after the Big Bang occurred about 13.8 billion years ago.

    Why is helium so rare on Earth?
    The problem is that even though helium makes up almost a quarter of all matter in the Universe, it's very rare on Earth with the main supply coming from natural gas wells in North America. This is because helium is a very light element that, once it escapes into the air, floats off into space.

    What happens if helium disappears from Earth?
    Other resources, such as oil and gas, may turn into pollution or be difficult to recycle. But only helium physically disappears from the planet. "It's the one element out of the entire periodic table that escapes the Earth and goes out into outer space," Hayes says.

    What do you know about helium?
    Here are five things you may not have known about helium. Helium is the only element on the planet that is a completely nonrenewable resource. On Earth, helium is generated deep underground through the natural radioactive decay of elements such as uranium and thorium.

    Did you know helium is so light?
    Did you know that helium is so light, that all the gas from your helium balloons escapes gravity and ends up in space? This is partly why it is rare on earth, but common in space, where it makes up 23 percent of the mass of observed matter in the universe.
