PULSAR PARTNERS WITH LEADING SPACE BALLOON LAUNCH COMPANY TO CHAMPION
UNIVERSITY SCIENCE PROGRAMMES

Pulsar Helium Inc. (AIM: PLSR, TSXV: PLSR, OTCQB: PSRHF) ("Pulsar" or the
"Company"), the helium project development company, is pleased to announce a
partnership with Send My Stuff To Space Ltd
(https://sendmystufftospace.com/how-it-works/) ("SMSTS"). Pulsar's in-house
initiative 'Pulsar Scholars', the quarterly bursary programme designed to
support students in higher-education studying Science, Technology, Engineering
and Mathematics ("STEM"), will partner with SMSTS's Academic Space Programme
which is designed to give students an opportunity to test their science
projects at altitude.

SMSTS deploys helium and hydrogen filled biodegradable natural latex space
balloons, providing suborbital flights into the upper stratosphere (at an
altitude of approximately 130,000 feet above sea level). The environment in
the middle segment of the near-space, upper stratosphere, 30-48 kilometres
above sea level, is similar to the environment on the surface of Mars: dry,
cold, hypobaric pressure, and exposed to high doses of UV irradiation, making
it ideal for students looking to test cube satellites and other scientific and
technological experiments for durability.

Highlights

•     The bursary funds of US$2,500 provided quarterly by the Pulsar
Scholars initiative to STEM students will be used to pay SMSTS to test student
projects and experiments in suborbital conditions.

•     This partnership will provide students with reliable, proven, and
sustainable test flights at heavily discounted rates for educational missions.

•     By covering the full cost of the flight, the bursary ensures
students have access to the resources and support they need to advance and
test their projects effectively.

Marc Farrington, Pulsar's Head of PR & Partnerships commented: "Our
in-house outreach initiative, Pulsar Scholars, has been providing quarterly
bursaries of US$2,500 to support higher education students pursuing STEM
subjects since 2023. Through our partnership with SMSTS, Pulsar Scholars will
support their Academic Space Programme giving students an opportunity to test
and validate the durability of their projects in one of the world's most
extreme environments."

The Partnership

As SMSTS transitions from hydrogen-filled space balloons to align more closely
with best practices in ballooning, primary helium is becoming the preferred
lifting gas for its suborbital flights, offering sustainability on par with
hydrogen.

SMSTS is expanding its Academic Space Programme, offering students the
opportunity to test their science projects at high altitudes. Recognising the
vital role of higher education in advancing scientific discovery, Pulsar, a
science-focused company, has introduced the Pulsar Scholars initiative to
support cutting-edge student projects. As part of this initiative, Pulsar will
award quarterly bursaries of USD$2,500 to STEM students seeking to test their
projects and experiments in suborbital conditions. The bursary funds will be
used by students to pay SMSTS, which provides reliable, proven, and
sustainable test flights at heavily discounted rates for educational missions.
By covering the full cost of the flight, the bursary ensures students have
access to the resources and support they need to advance and test their
projects effectively.
