Helium is a very useful element. Helium is so light that it has great lifting power. And since helium will not catch fire, it's perfect for using in dirigibles, army and navy blimps, weather balloons and so on.

The United States government felt that helium was so important that natural source of helium had to be found. In certain parts of the country such as New Mexico, Texas and Kansas, there are natural gas wells. It was found that this gas contained about 1% or 2% of helium. The United States government is the only government in the world which has an abundant supply of helium.
Helium is also used in medicine. It is used to help people who have asthma breathe easier. Also, when drivers and workers in tunnels come up, they are also given a mixture of helium and oxygen to breathe so they won't get the "bends".

Heliums best application is in the refilling of balloons. Heliums are also found in the sun together with hydrogen.
