Inventioneering
November 26, 2025 • EPISODE 288
What does it really take to bring ideas to life? In this episode, Dr. Roger Billings takes us deeper into the world of inventioneering—the dynamic mix of creativity, engineering, and problem-solving that turns imagination into real-world inventions. He shows how inventioneering isn’t limited to tech or science—it can be applied to any creative or practical project. If you’ve ever had a spark of inspiration, this episode will help you learn how to shape it into something meaningful and impactful.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
I think r-51 really talks funny. It’s interesting to learn about plane noses and batteries.
I feel like I’ve been wasting time trying to perfect and make things other would like rather than embrace my own creativity
Science live is always so intriguing and interesting!
Every thing I learn in science lives fascinates me so much!
Some members of my extended family actually flew on the Concorde before it went out of service.
I am grateful for the opportunities that Acellus Academy gives students, such as the Science Fair and various school-related activities. Homeschooling has allowed me to expand my education beyond textbooks and into real world applications.
Happy Thanksgiving from California!
I liked to see work they are doing on changing the sonic boom into a sonic thud. I would love to work for NASA one day.

Hi and Happy Thanksgiving from Texas!!
How did the laden jar work by useiing water because in my mind it would need a spark and by completeing the circuit you would need copper and an conducter but if there is a conducter how would you move the electricity.
lol aliens
I enjoy watching the Science live
I enjoyed watching this one!! I hope to find out more in the future
It was interesting to learn about the origin of the battery!

Happy thanksgiving everyone!!!!
Hey am from Tennessee and I think R51 is a funny guy and makes you have a good laugh
Is there a hypothesis on when they will be finished with the plane invention?
it kinda reminds me of the planes in the Jetsons.
– happy thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving! Speaking of thanks, I am very thankful for all the love and hard work that is put into making this video.
How does a jet go up 12,000 feet?
Currently watching from Costa Rica!
I always look forward for these weekly science lives. They always give such insight into stuff we dont talk about on a daily basis.
Happy Thanksgiving from Rhode Island!
Great to learn about origin of inventions. Thank you!
I like the fact that some jets can go faster than the speed of sound
I love learning new things through science live. Happy Thanksgiving !
I love these lives!
Thankful for Acellus
How good is hydrogen for a power source?
I love Acellus so much!!!
It’s a good thing batteries were created or a lot of other inventions would not exist.
I think that how batteries were invented and how they advanced throughout history. I also enjoyed learning about how Nasa is trying to advance they supersonic planes of jets and make them better.
So Roger Billings coined the word inventioneering?
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I am thankful for Acellus program!
I am thankful for Acellus for teaching me! Happy Thanksgiving!

If I worked for Disney my inventioneering could become imagineering! That would be a fun job since I love Disney movies and science.
I love how we are the origin of batteries today I would like to learn is more Morse code and like a Morse code class
Happy Thanksgiving! I am thankful for Acellus!
thank you dr. Billings!
Thanks as always guys! I really love watching SL with my sister – hope I can invent something someday!
It was a really interesting video; it motivated me to keep studying and helped me realize that education can help me achieve great things in the future.
I really like this video and I like how it was brought out of the new changes to science live and how we can see the other comments. It’s really cool to be able to see other kids and the questions they ask and I think it’d be a good idea to make science live credit credits a thing
The X-59 jet and the Leyden jar are awesome and amazing. This is an excellent science live video. I love learning and watching science live.
Happy Turkey Day!!!
Supersonic travel again would be amazing!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
It is very interesting to see the origin of how things have evolved over the years. It is crazy how things have changed so much and they will continue to change over the years and generations to come.
Hi Addison from Guam 🇬🇺, have R 51 ever invented something? .
Watching from Ohio. I love Acellus!!!
R51 has to get rid of those aliens
How much fuel would the X-59 burn in one flight going at the speed of sound?
Happy Thanksgiving. I am thankful for acellus.
Thankful for Acellus!
Hi from Illinois. I really love Acellus! Learned a lot today.
I think inventors play an important role in our society. A lot of them become engineers.
Thomas Edison invented the light bulb. I think that’s an important invention.
It is interesting to learn about the origin of items
R-51 is my favorite part of Science live🧪
Greetings to my favorite educational application, Acellus. Since the plane’s nose or beak is unbelievably long that pilots wouldn’t able to see anything outside the window during landing, inventors upgraded or adjusted the beak design downwards, styling eagle’s beak. Now may I question why they did not include a parachute for the plane to prevent it from rapidly falling to the ground when the plane got damaged?
Today’s episode was really interesting. Happy Thanksgiving to all of Acellus students and staff!
This was a great science live!
Im so thankful for Acellus!
So thankful for acellus! Happy thanksgiving!
Love it! So happy for acellus
Happy Thanksgiving! I hope R51 teaches us the science of cooking a turkey today.
I never knew there were battery variants beyond double and triple A.
I love Acellus!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone, I Ioved science live today

I really enjoy Dr. John and Tobias’ lectures each week. They are such great speakers and keep my attention.
Science Live is so interesting. Learning about the orgins of batteries was intresting.
I love Roger Billing’s sense of humor. Each and every one of the speakers are so inspiring.
Hello from Georgia. Thank you for the information!
I love R51 everytime, without exception! 🙂
Happy thanksgiving to the Acullus crew! I can say for certain your one of the many things I’m grateful for!!
Another day of learning new things from Acellus!!
Now I will never forget to do an SOS (Dit Dit Dit Daa Daa Daa Dit Dit Dit)
I really find Morse code interesting and I think it’s a really cool way to communicate and I’d love to learn it
I probably would have turned the oven upside down as well
I really enjoyed this science live! I enjoyed learning about how the battery was first made, and I look forward to seeing how other everyday objects were invented in the past. Thank you acellus!
