Subvenerean hydrogen

News from 12 May is that this planet has more hydrogen than we think - below even the mantle. This goes well with a story from a few days later that our core has collected noble gasses from our Sun at our creation. If helium then assuredly hydrogen is coming with.

As we fare through spaaace we might need to get some of that, especially deuterium which we'll use for low-neutron fusion; I expect quite a bit of that tritium byproduct helium-3 also. Since we know Venus has a core I have to ask about its hydrogen too.
