Im guessing China. The U.S Gov cares less about space exploration.

Helium 3 is the alternative of oil. And non pollution fossil fuel.

Answer 1

China is a good guess.  So is Japan and Korea.  India is the dark horse.  So what's the deal with Helium 3?  I follow the space program pretty closely, but I must have missed something..?  Are you saying someone has a project underway, or just talking in general?

Answer 2

I think most people are in agreement here with China. The US has lost a bit of that spirit that China seems to possess now.

Answer 3

It would not be worth the effort because it would cost more to get there, get it, and get it back than they could get selling it.

Wont happen. At least in our lifetime.

Answer 4

I'll take Russia...

I WOULD say North Korea but they dont have a very advanced space program.

Answer 5

china already has a space program on mining the h3 on the moon.

Answer 6

I'll agree and say China. The US is stupid and cares about nothing but blowing money on the war right now. I saw a really great NASA show about H3 and how they plan on getting it. If the US doesn't want to be dominated we need to wise up quickly!

Answer 7

I agree with you. Isn't that sad? Hopefully Microsoft or Google will beat them to it.
