    I loved this episode! My favorite part was the Technology Spotlight. They recently created a robot using 3D printing and air to make it move without the use of electronics. I believe this can help with potential underwater missions ot retrieve objects once it is updated for controlled movement. I’m eager for the next update!

    obviously this wasn’t your only invention you seem to have had a pretty big impact on our world today and that is really awesome to know , a lot of our family dose not agree with us homeschooling and so when I tell them about the accredited program that is Acellus it’s also really awesome being able to tell them that this is a weekly source that has grown my daughters interest in science , we watch it together and I try to explain some of it in an easier way for her and she will go tell her cousins some of the cool facts that she learns from this . Your generous contribution to help families like mine make it possible to use an accredited program so our daughter can have a more supportive and positive experience in learning.

    The 3D-printed robot was super cool. Dr. B is a true innovator in the world. FSD (Function Structure Distribution) in my opinion means Dr. B plays a huge role in the way we use technology. Today we text, use the internet, and we take it for granted. This video truly inspired me to keep going even when people doubt you. I’ve taken the scholarship for granted when I should’ve been working harder. I will be watching my science live every week from now on.

    Dear Mr. Billings, my mom told me about how you were helping us pay for our classes, and that you just wanted us to join your weekly meetings to show we are serious about it. I didn’t really understand or think too much of it. But, after I heard you talk about it today, I felt really bad for not realizing just how much you sacrifice for me and my brother. Even my Mom started to cry when she heard you talking about it. She says she doesn’t know what we would do without your help. Thank you for helping us.

    I think that moving the scholarship requirements up is very important. Just making this high quality program essentially free is insane. And science live is awesome anyway. It’s entertainment wearing the mask of education. Dr. Tobias’ segment is always captivating. An incredible show with a monetary reward? Keep up the good work Dr. B
