Very interesting about the moon having water and how it’s created. I also like to hear the details about inventions and the problem solving it takes.
I love the part about the black powder sooo cool 😀
I would love to try and invent something!
Thank you Mr. Roger Billings for the science live videos. Its funny to watch all your videos because you have a way of making them very amusing
My favorite technology teacher Dr John
I love science!! This was amazing
There is so much to learn. I very love science!!!
Im hoping some day I can invent something.
Science life is the best thing in the world it is so much fun I like watching it R51 is so silly everybody else is so nice It is so cool I like learning about science my name is Jackson I have fun I have been here since I think I’ve been here until this is my second week So then I finished my robotics thing and I like about science and I when I want to go up I want to be a coder I like about Dr B I like Dr B i’m subscribed to his Youtube channe
Light bulbs are fascinating.
Thank Dr. Roger Billings for teaching such fun things!
I love this I listen to it every morning
After watching Dr. Billings and the Inventioneering Episode, I think I am going to like Science better! I really enjoyed the experiments and observing the reactions when the flasks were mixed with liquids from the test tubes. Just remember that most inventions occur because people are looking for a better way to do things and want to solve a problem.
science is such an inspiring subject.!!!! its awesome to see what science
has to offer!!!!!
Its was an amazing episode!! thank you so much I personally love science Live and D.R.B
Science truly is filled with wonderous facts and questions, which sparks curiosity, and finally leads to inventioneers. What a wonderful video!
how do you get the billings scholership
I liked when the fire re lit when he exposed it to more oxygen
Amazing!😎
I got so scared when we tested hydrogen peroxide 0MG🩷
Hi R-51 and everyone.

I love science very much and always follow your dreams!
WOW! Thank you for this episode. It was really good!
This was a very interesting episode! R51 was hilarious!
Love this
I love Science Live!
It’s amazing how you created the cleanest car!
i learn somthing new from these science lives as well
I learn something cool in each of these science lives.
i love R51 i want to meet him
I loved this science live!
A inventioneer is a combination of an “inventor” and an “engineer” who plans, designs, and creates new solutions and products, often involving innovation, problem-solving, and creativity to bring ideas to life.
Curiosity , creativity, and determination are things I need to work on especially when thinking of problems to be solved. Great tips in this episode for inventing .
I love how in depth they go in lives for kids and teenagers to understand
It’s so exciting to learn new things from science live!
Loved this episode!
I love it! Cool!
I love science live! There is so much to learn!
i love science live! there is so much to learn!
R51 is soooooooooooo funny!!!!!!
light bulbs are amazing
I love learning new things!
This is so cool.
This was cool!
Did you know r-51’s debut was exactly 100 episodes ago?
Very COOL!!
Loved this video!
Inventing is endless because everything grows and changes, as does the human mind!
I loved the video the experiments sound cool!
Lightbulbs were such a good idea they became the symbol for a good idea
Ooh! This is so interesting! I love these blogs!
The flame experiments were super fun to watch!
It is intriguing to see how far inventions have come!
I LOVE r-51!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lightbulbs are helpful!
Dont you think there come a time where pretty much everything useful has been invented and inventing new things will become more rare?
It’s insane to think about how far back engineering was used.
I hope that one day I figure out how to apply experiments in a way that can help people.
It’s amazing to see how certain inventions alter our everyday lives!
I’m very happy we have lightbulbs
Cool! 😎
Experiments are so cool!
love this so mucchhhhhh!!!!!
great episode, would love to invent something one day.
very thankful for lightbulbs!!
experiments are a fun way to learn
My student watched this several times!
This is so cool! Can’t wait to see more!
I would love to go to space one day I think that looking out from a spaceship to see the earth
Very good video
science is my little sisters favorite subject, i adore watching these videos with her and watching her inspiration grow.
Really interesting episode, I learned a lot
i love these videos there so entertaining
Experiments are a fun way to learn
Really nice video and show how important it is to be curious because it can lead to new inventions
If you could invent something people say is impossible what would it be?
My daughter has entered her “ everything is an experiment “ phase so when she’s outside and we’ve just finished school she’ll take whatever she can find and start making things. Experimenting is so much fun especially when your passion for science is evolving .
experimenting in science is fantastic, especially when flasks are involved!
I make inventions out of cardboard all the time.
This is so cool! Can’t wait for more.
wow so cool
I would love to be an inventioneer!!
So cool
thats cool how you can experiment with different things
I love watching science live it’s always so fun
💕
Very cool process
Cool live
Nice live!
How long did it take u to make a hydrogen car?
Science is my favorite subject. I love to make, build and experiment with things especially outdoors. My mom makes our own skin care sometimes with essential oils like soap and bug spray and I like to help!
To invent something would be so cool!
You can invent so many things
Inventions are cool.
I love seeing these lives.
Really interesting video
These lives are awesome.
Amazing
I’ve always wanted to invent something.
Who is Dr B’s favorite inventor of this era?

My Mom says I must have gotten my inventing mind from my ancestor Jesse W Reno. He invented Conveyor belts and the Electric stairs, (or Escalator). I am working on it.
I loved learning about inventing from this video.
Wow, this is super helpful for coming up with ideas! Thanks Rodger Billings!
I Love this
The way you put the flame out was cool.
I had no idea that’s why they called it a light bulb.
I never new hydrogen could explode
very cool.
the hardest part of inventing is marketing!
great videos keep up the work!!
wow!
Are patents needed for every invention? If so, why?
Inspiring video to prompt us to invent.
even since I was little and after I watched cloudy and the chance of meat balls I always wanted to be an inventor
I wanted to be an inventor myself one day.
I love learning new things when its comes to chemistry even if its simple
I thought that this was really interesting, and I learned a lot of new things.
I think using AI for marketing an invention can be very beneficial
This was a fun episode, it had some good jokes in it.
How many years were you in each field for college?
What are the steps of inventioneering.
I hope to become an inventor one day! so cool
This was pretty neat.
Really good
why are there so many inventions thats do the same thing?
What would it take to become a inventioneer
So interesting!
It’s amazing to see how one person’s idea can shape the world.
Amazing!!!🤪
watch science live every day your brain will get bigger seriously
I love all of the jokes!
I think I use the first step more often than any others.
I only ask questions
Thank god Thomas Edeson made lightbulbs because if he didnt we would all be in the dark talking or working.
I love it when you guys do experiments! It’s so fun and at the same time we get to learn too!
Awesome video!
Great information
What inspires people to start inventing
The fire experiment was really cool to watch and interesting to learn about.
Watching the experiments are so cool.
