PRIMARY CONNECTION: Pattern 4 (He-3 demand temporal bound) — this piece synthesizes the bearish case
WHY ARCHIVED: Provides the clearest articulation of the "temporally bounded demand" thesis from an investment-analyst perspective; useful framing for the extractor
EXTRACTION HINT: Use as context/framing, not primary evidence. The primary sources for the substitution claim are JACS KYb3F10 paper, Kiutra LEMON project, and DARPA BAA — this article just synthesizes them into investment-analysis language.
## Key Facts
- AKA Penn Energy published analysis on March 11, 2026 arguing DARPA-funded cryocooler research undermines He-3 lunar mining economics
- Industry analysts frame the $20M/kg He-3 price point as viable for 5-7 years according to AKA Penn Energy synthesis
- The analysis cites DARPA sub-kelvin cryocooler program, JACS KYb3F10 paper on He-3-free ADR, and Kiutra LEMON project as primary evidence for substitution risk
