About this listen

How are balloons able to float? Is it magic–or is it one of earth’s elements, like iron or oxygen experiencing an explosive charge? Helium is formed when unstable atoms collide. Helium is found underground with other gases, like methane, which is the main ingredient in natural gas used to heat our homes! Learn how helium was born, and how exploding stars helped create a gas lighter than air!
