Not sure which was better, Mr. Peabody's puns at the end of the episode or Paul Harvey's The Rest of the Story.

What are they using Helium for? It's a noble gass and doesn't react with anything.
Second question something I've always wondered, since Helium is lighter than air, how is it gathered and from where?

There is a limited supply from what I've heard. It's basically generated underground from radiation (alpha particle + electrons) and found in natural gas deposits.
As for what they're using it for? dunno. They're Boeing. They probably couldn't get enough Hydrogen to create a Hindenburg 2.0.

SLS uses Hydrogen for fuel. It's so hard to work with that it took NASA six months to fuel the first SLS rocket.

The SLS is a collection of the worst ideas that Boeing and LM could think of, isn't it? Not even reusing the Shuttle boosters can help them get it up.

Yes it is. Even the concept of reusing the shuttles SRBs didn't really work out as they had to completely reengineer them. NASA would have been better off to clean sheet the SLS.
