The newfound ability to transport antimatter offsite will empower scientists to study it in greater detail without interference from the giant magnets that power CERN’s antimatter factory, possibly unlocking hidden truths about the nature of the…

Except there’s shortage of helium because it is only extracted from new oil wells which we are not finding too many anymore

The helium used here is not lost. In terms of usage, this is quite minimal. The daily use of helium for toy balloons in a single US state is probably more than one of these.
