Assuming our planet doesn’t get obliterated by an asteroid (we’re overdue), we will eventually consume all the resources Earth has kindly given us. If our species wants to survive, we’re going to have to do it somewhere else, which means we need to get out there and exploring. For that, we’re going to need hydrogen, our ticket to ride the universal express. A FINAL THOUGHT Each element on the periodic table has a story to tell but what that story is depends on us.
