Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a survey of America's triumphs in producing helium, a rare gas, in the decade following the First World War. When supplied to airships and balloons, this lighter-than-air element enhances their buoyancy and reduces the risk of explosions by replacing the highly flammable hydrogen typically used. The insights of the author, a chemical engineer, convey the captivating story of how the United States harnessed the power of chemistry and engineering to create large-scale helium production and establish itself as a global leader in this field. Along the way, the author reveals the challenges and triumphs encountered in this wartime endeavor and highlights the potential for this precious gas to revolutionize aviation and our understanding of the universe.
