Deep Hole Hydrogen
October 15, 2025 • EPISODE 282
Hidden far below the Earth’s surface may lie the key to a cleaner energy future. In this episode of Science LIVE, Dr. Roger Billings introduces Project Deep Hole—an ambitious effort to uncover naturally occurring hydrogen. Discover how this remarkable element forms deep underground, how scientists are locating and capturing it, and why it could revolutionize the way we power our world.

Another fun episode to watch.
This program is so inspirational! I love it!
The technology spotlight was interesting! Superconductives happen when the conductive is cooled below a critical temp, which causes it to lose all electrical resistance. Someone created a motor using liquid hydrogen is lighter and more efficient.
I hope that the deep hole project can help pave the way to a more sustainable future, before its too late.
hydrogen is so amazing
Under earth surfaces can have more undiscovered energy.
Science Live is SO entertaining!!!
Super cool video
I love science so much and I hope to learn more about this project
Loving the hydrogen talks
Hydrogen is amazing to learn about. Super conductors are such a marvelous invention. The superconductor motor is definitely going to be used more in the future. I can’t wait to see the progress.
Learning about hydrogen is so cool!
I am intrigued by hydrogen, hope the scientists can figure out how to uncover more ways to use hydrogen and where to find them!
I’m learning so much about hydrogen today
Did you fly your helicopter yet Dr. Billings?
Dr. Billings is the master of hydrogen.
Super conductors have to be very cold in order to function.
hydrogen is so cool!
I believe it takes a lot of effort, determination, and faith to change the world or something in the world. This science live has inspired me to think I can do anything if I put my mind to it! And you can too! So thank you.
This is very helpful and also really interesting.
