Interlune says its Cold Capture process uses cryogenic distillation to produce a rare and expensive type of helium that's used in quantum computers. The process can be applied on Earth - and on the moon, where helium-3 is more abundant. www.geekwire.com/2026/interlu... H/T @interlune.bsky.social

NASA has awarded Seattle-based Interlune $6.9 million to develop a payload that can cook gases out of moon dirt and look for traces of hydrogen and helium-3. The project fits into Interlune's grand plan to sell lunar helium-3 on Earth. www.geekwire.com/2026/interlu... H/T @interlune.bsky.social

Seattle-based @interlune.bsky.social reports that it's in the midst of a $5 million SAFE investment round to "advance key technical milestones" as it gets set to identify and extract lunar resources, starting with helium-3. #Interlune #Moon #Space #Helium3 www.geekwire.com/2026/interlu...
