Noxious air, and lifeless
flame-killer.
Yet it abides us here,
content to dominate lesser airs
and put bubbles in our stouts,
one part in fifty of our
lively bodies.
Liquid, it removes our warts,
enables our superconductors,
and cools our cameras
so our telescopes can see it,
Solid
on the surfaces of Triton and Pluto.

Nitrogen? ("Removes our warts" is my hint...)
Yep, got it in one!
