Comment on End nuclear fusion!
What is helium used for when diving?
Reducing the amount of narcotic gases in your mix so you don’t act like a drunk idiot when in a life threatening situation.
Those narcotic gases are nitrogen and oxygen (although there’s only so little oxygen you can have…and also only so much!)
and to different degrees at different deaths.
Was that supposed to say depths?
Yes. Yes it was.
Awesome thank you!
Most welcome! I can talk endlessly about diving so welcome the question.
I added an edit with some more information incase you’re more curious.
Are there other gasses that could be used. E.g some of the noble gasses like argon or neon?
