An additional tidbit: this is not enough mass to offset the amount of helium and hydrogen which escapes Earth's atmosphere daily. Earth is on net losing mass. Eventually, Earth will lose all the hydrogen locked in it's oceans via this process. Not sure if that's destined to happen before or after we're engulfed by the expanding sun though.
Well that's bad news for all the infrastructure projects in my current city and country. They're gonna run out of hydrogen before our subway extension is finished.
