How long does helium last in a mylar balloon and does it deflate or stop floating because the helium escapes, or does helium degrade?

Asked by pallen123 (1519points) December 6th, 2009

Just wondering why something so seemingly unpermeable as a mylar balloon deflates at all. Could you have a mylar balloon that never deflates?
