If you're going to turn a profit and build intricate factories in StarRupture, you must gather a heaping helping of different resources. From Calcium to Titanium, there's plenty to gather and manipulate for factory fabrication and optimization. One resource you'll eventually require is Helium. Take a look below, and we'll tell you exactly where to find it and what to do with it.
There are plenty of Helium deposits that aren't far away from where you begin your adventure. However, it's still a good idea to make sure you have a weapon of some kind before you go gathering. You'll likely encounter some hostile bugs on your journey, and without a way to defend yourself, you won't be grabbing any Helium.
The best place to find Helium is to the east and northeast of where you begin the game. The Helium that's a bit further north is easier to acquire once you've progressed through the game a bit more, but it definitely has a higher concentration of the gas. Meanwhile, the Helium directly to the east is easier to harvest shortly after you've started playing. You'll know you've found a pocket of helium when you come across a large, flat purple plate of stone with whisps of purple gas leaving its cracked surface. Of course, you can also find small pockets of Helium on meteorite hearts if you're in a bind. These will be purple chunks on the meteorites that you see scattered everywhere around the map.
While you can grab Helium early on, keep in mind that you need a Helium-3 Extractor to do so. You can only build one of these once you have reached level six with the Slenian Corporation. Once you have the recipe, you'll need 250 Basic Building Materials to create it. Simply head to a Helium geyser, find the Helium-3 Extractor in your recipe list, and plop it down. Of course, you can also find small pockets of Helium on meteorite hearts if you're in a bind.
You won't have many uses for Helium in the early game, but give it some time and you'll find you need it in a huge number of recipes. In fact, you'll even need Helium just for bits and pieces that are required for building bigger things. Electronics, Batteries, Chemicals, Epoxy, Glass, and more are all made using Helium. If you want to make some of the most useful and complex gadgetry in StarRupture, you need to make sure you've got Helium.
Here is a full list of all the crafting recipes that require Helium:
