Congrats Anna!
This video was very enlightening, it’s very important to pursue your dreams and acquire the knowledge to make the impossible, possible!!
This is so interesting
This is inspiring, to know that no matter what, you should chase your dreams and goals.
I can do the robot dance moves.
I would like to make a robot
Knowledge is so powerful in helping us achieve our dreams. Throughout our lives, in reality, we never really stop learning.
The robot was very unique looking. But the fact that it only had one motor was cool to learn. Also, the story about Roger Billings ideas and what he thought were inspiring.
How can you have enough determination to finish schooling to get a doctorate, I would like to get a certificate in cosmetology because I don’t have enough discipline.
Even though it probably wouldn’t give you infinite energy, you could probably still get some hydrogen back from the generator, which would make the engine more efficient.
The eyes on the robot made it look funny! Anyway, Great Science Live®!
