i hope that hydrogen will be used for cars instead of gas or electricity it would be cool.
Could the Earth really provide enough of it to power our cities? I really liked the part about how scientists find it deep underground it reminds me of exploring caves!
Hydrogen will definitely be the energy of the future.
I have seen some of those fuses around my house!
I hope it can be possible for cars to run off hydrogen. Imagine the money people could save !
Never knew hydrogen formed in the Earth’s crust.
Love the jokes, Dr. Joseph!!
Many mysterious things happening deep in the Earth!
I am really appreciate how cool these episodes are and how I got to learn about how electricity was improved up to our day.
It is cool to know that that the world could one day run on clean energy!
How many more years for cars running off hydrogen? I think it’s possible!
Learning about hydrogen is so amazing!
How do you make a Hydrogen 🚙 car
How long does it take to dig down in the crust?
Hydrogen can change the world, do you thing one day everything could run on hydrogen
Do you think one day the earth will run off if all clean energy
i love how they teach about stuff that i thought was boring but the way they say it makes it interesting, like before today i thought that hydrogen was boring but know how cool it is.
So exciting to see how hydrogen gonna change the world!
It’s crazy how fast things change.
I was never very interested in hydrogen before but the comedy in these and the way facts are presented makes it so interesting.
Learning about hydrogen is fascinating
It’s quite fascinating to see how’s hydrogen works. The study of its cycle and the elements ability to span throughout the earth is incredible to me.
Hydrogen is cool!
Best episode yet!
i loved this! Hydrogen is so awesome!
Yay! I’m glad that scientists are discovering new low-carbon energy sources!
loved learning about hydrogen
It’s so nice how Dr. Billings talks about loved ones and reflect how their support help us grow and keep going.
I wonder what hydrogen powered semi trucks would look like
Its amazing how God created the Earth. That’s why I love science, it truly shows there is a purpose for everything.
Learning about hydrogen is so fun.
I love Roger Billings and Pajet! Super interesting video!
Hydrogen is so fun ,so interesting, and so cool I love learning about it, and i can’t wait for more
very interesting, about having a idea and creating something useable. But having to create other inventions to make it work.
that is so cool that there is another planet that supports water.
Hydrogen is so cool I love learning about it.
Hydrogen is really cool! And the hydrogen car built by r-51 was so funny!
I had no idea that fuses and the breaker box was invented to control the amount of energy being controlled, to prevent fires. Very cool
Maybe you can build the first hydrogen powered school in the world
Hydrogen is incredibly neat!
your jokes had me rolling on the floor keep it up! hydrogen is an amazing thing the world has wow.
It’s so nice how Dr. Billings talks about loved ones and reflect how their support help us grow and keep going.
I just forumd out that Roger billing was the first to make a car out of hydrogen did not know this !!
Your jokes just crack me up
