"Apollo samples typically showed helium-3 concentrations measured in parts per billion. That means enormous volumes of regolith must be processed to extract useful gas. The basic industrial recipe is straightforward on paper. "

    I loved it too. And also had the same thought. It is atmospheric, a slow burn, captivating. In the end not much actually happened. So I am not compelled to see it again.

    Sam R is one of several GOAT actors however.
