I recently saw a fascinating series of videos on 𝕏 where Nina Hooper, Director of Business Development at Interlune, discusses the firm's plans to mine helium-3 on the Moon and bring it back for use on Earth.

According to Brave Leo, Interlune is headquartered in Seattle, WA, USA, and it launched in 2020. The firm, with its 22 employees, specializes in harvesting resources from space. With private and public partnerships, the firm is creating the infrastructure to access marketable commodities in space and bring them back to Earth.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find embeddable copies of the videos from YouTube, so here are the videos on 𝕏:
- #1 - What is helium-3 and WHY is it so important?
- #2 - Why do we need to go to the moon for helium-3?
- #3 - How MUCH helium-3 is out there?:
- #4 - Mission Plans
The videos are only two or three minutes, each, so go ahead and click through.
In the first video, Hooper tells us about helium-3. What is it, and why is it important?
