How to get Helium in StarRupture
You can start collecting Helium right away in StarRupture from small meteorites dotted around the planet's surface. But, at first, you won't have any use for it. Once you've got your head around the likes of Wolfram, Titanium, and Calcium, you'll need to get this resource en masse. Luckily, the Helium locations aren't all that far away.
I recommend you have a gun and a good bundle of bullets with you, as you're likely to run into some monsters on the way. Plus, you'll be right next door to the Stabilizer blueprint location...
