<P> Helium is named for the Greek Titan of the Sun , Helios . It was first detected as an unknown yellow spectral line signature in sunlight during a solar eclipse in 1868 by Georges Rayet , Captain C.T. Haig , Norman R. Pogson , and Lieutenant John Herschel , and was subsequently confirmed by French astronomer Jules Janssen . Janssen is often jointly credited with detecting the element along with Norman Lockyer . Janssen recorded the helium spectral line during the solar eclipse of 1868 while Lockyer observed it from Britain . Lockyer was the first to propose that the line was due to a new element , which he named . The formal discovery of the element was made in 1895 by two Swedish chemists , Per Teodor Cleve and Nils Abraham Langlet , who found helium emanating from the uranium ore cleveite . In 1903 , large reserves of helium were found in natural gas fields in parts of the United States , which is by far the largest supplier of the gas today . </P>
