wow that jet was awesome. its crazy to think its illegal for aircraft to make a sonic boom.
is the future hydrogen or nuclear?
I love Mr. Roger Billings
Dr. John’s segment was fun to watch. The X-59 jet has a long nose that can bend up so the pilots can see, and some jets can travel faster than the speed of sound
the plane was so cool I didn’t know that Benjamin Franklin had anything to do with negative charge or positive charge
the story you told about your plane made me sick to my stomach too…just the thought of it.
It’s very interesting to learn the steps of an invention such as the layden jar. The concept that it took more than one invention to create a sort of ultimate invention is really intriguing.
The X-59 sounds really neat!
Always love watching these.
I really enjoyed this video
is the solar system made out of electricity
Dr Roger Billings is amazing
Hello from North Carolina!!
Hello from TX! Dr Roger Billings was great this episode.
learning about alternative energy would be cool
i did not know thats how battery got its name
The history of batteries is so intresting, thank you for sharing!
I love supersonic planes
Tobias is funny
That airplain is like nothing ive ever seen! Looks very aerodynamic, haha!
I love this! amazing live!
Hi from louisiana
Who came up with acellus
I really enjoyed the video thank you so much for the help!
Mrs Pajet looked so pretty! Her hair looked so nice. Happy thanksgiving hope is was good!
What type of metal was it made from.
What is your favorite thanksgiving food?
why would the front of the jet be tilted
I love to watch these videos. They are awesome!
Science is my best subject
How can hydrogen bonds be used in our day to day life including with water?
Will we ever talk about space? It’s my favorite subject in science!
its easier to see with a camera on an airplane
R-51 is so cool
I liked hearing about how Dr. Billings visited a Navy Base. I really liked when he said that invention involves both science and art. I hadn’t thought of it like that.
I loved R51’s conversation today! He makes me laugh so hard
I hope you guys had a great and safe Thanksgiving!
I live in Nevada. I like that Dr. Billings pronounced Nevada correctly when he was flying over my state going to California.
I love Acellus the science shows give me more time to learn.
I love acellus
Happy thanksgiving great live today
I loved this episode of science live!
batteries have come a long way.
Thank you for all you do. Im almost done with another class.
those jets look awsome, i wish i could see one in person.
Happy Thanksgiving
who came up with the word “invention”
I did not know that about batteries.
Happy thanksgiving!
This is the best one yet!
These Science lives might become the highlight of my week! The wide range of subjects you guys go over in these lives have taught me so much that I would have never learned.
Y’all should make a class on strange languages like morse code!
Happy thanksgiving to Mr Roger and the entire acellus staff!
One of my favorite science lives yet!
Although science isn’t my favorite I do find these videos interesting and learn something new everytime.
Thank you for the comments about the attendance of science lives! Also great science live!
That joke was actually pretty funny
I love Science Live!!
Hi from Tennessee
Thank you for another great science live!
The jet looked so cool! I wonder how fast it is possible to go?
I love inventing things
It would be so cool to get a Science credit for watching Science Live.
Tobias is the goat
I have done the book writing activity before but I really want to try and use it more. It is a lot of fun. I want to be an author one day.
Having my home be hydrogen powered would be cool
Learning about the jet was interesting!
I liked learning about the radio in your pocket because my mom works for a radio station and I would like to also carry a radio in my pocket!
Is there any specific books that would help with learning Morse code?
I love how you can learn so much through Acellus.
I always learn something from these videos.
I like inventing stuff its kind of like legos which I love
Science Live always keeps me wondering, thinking, and dreaming.
how can everyone’s homes become hydrogen powered?
Science is cool!
Wow! Who knew inventioneering could be so cool!
Watching from Montana.
Love this lesson
ACELLUS IS AMAZING!!!!!!!
We love Science in my home !!!! Lets cook alot of food!!
Interesting lesson about batteries, I enjoy watching the Science Live videos.
I love how the pictures are shown on the screen, making the visual aspect amazing.
Thank you for always spreading this wonderful knowledge!
The x-59 looks really cool!
Thanksgiving and Science !!!! my favorite
can a rocket go faster then the speed of sound.
Happy late thanksgiving, I really enjoyed R-51 segment!
Science live is always so interesting! I love it! Funny too!
That was really interesting! Thank you Roger Billings.
hello from alabama guysssssss lets goooooo
I wonder if these air planes are soon going to be involved in space travel or time travel.🤨🤔🤯
Thank you Dr. Billings for talking about being thankful.
I know Morse code
dr roger billings is the best
Watching from GA love Science 🔭🧪
It would be cool to be a pilot and be able to fly by the map
What would happen if the battery didn’t work in the initial circuit?
Happy Thanksgiving, I’m so thankful for Science Live.
hi from alabama
Would making homes “hydrogen powered” be safer for the environment?
Kids having the ability to express their creativity through books is so amazing to me!
Who came up with the word “inventioneering?’
Dr Roger Billings is so cool!
It’s cool how long Science has came, Awesome video!
Today I learned that the first personal computer was made in 1977. I find all electronics to be facinating but the fact that many of them were first invented so long ago is even more interesting!
What school did Dr Billings go to in elementary?
I enjoyed learning about the plane and it’s long nose. I thought it was very interesting.
what is needed to make the sensor for the jets to tell how fast they go?
how did Benjamin Franklin experiment with the leyden jar?
If you don’t believe that the Big Bang theory is accurate, what theory do you think prevails when it comes to the origin of the universe?
I hope I can invent something someday. What do you think are the most important subjects to study if you want to be a great inventor?
(Help from mom.)
i always thought as a kid that batteries just had stored energy instead of a chemical reaction making it
i loved learning about batteries and when the years got newer the batteries got beter
science is cool
Watching from Ohio.
I wonder how someone turned simple static electricity into batteries that could make radios that did not have to be plugged in.
I thought the long nosed jet was funny!
I never knew hydrogen could be a powerful source of energy. Thank you for this weeks video!
Inventing things take time and patience how can I make something out of random things in my house?😯
Amazing how the leyden jar expierment paved the path for many modern tools used by millions everyday, This demonstrates the power of curiosity and how if used correctly you can be the difference.
This Science Live was made on my birthday! Great episode
I want to be an engineer!
Happy Thanksgiving! Another amazing Science Live!
I Love that we learned some Morse code this week ❤️
Hydrogen power is so cool.
My dad was in the Air Force and was part of a group that looked at training for fighter jets
Dr Roger billing is amazing
Batteries have come so far over the generations!
Thank you so much for this week’s Science Live!
You went to school with Benjamin Franklin!? That’s so cool!
What happens when the plane crashes?
I hope you all had a Happy Thanksgiving!
Great Science Live. The X-59 Jet is really cool.
That was really cool how the battery company made a battery specifically for the transistor radio.
I think the hydrogen powered things are pretty cool, and happy late thanksgiving!
my goal is to be a smart as Dr Roger Billings
Happy thanksgiving everyone.
My favorite hobby is animation I hope one day I can have a future in it
batteries are very helpful and they have improved a lot!
I am so greatful for the opportunity for acellus it has changed my life. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in my acellus family.
I really enjoyed the part about learning how batteries are made.
This was amazing to watch!!!
I didn’t know batteries started then!
It is so awesome to see the way that we have always been communicating throughout history as a species. Also, I think adding Morse code to the curriculum is a excellent idea. I also had tossed around the idea of even ham radio. I feel like these are great skills to have.
R-51 is super cool. I really enjoy Wednesdays and the new episodes
Hi from Tennessee
if they can make the sonic boom go away with the Concorde come back.
I think if any one tried and tested enough any one can invent and build anything.
I love science live!!!
Voltaic Pile seemed really useful back then, it’s crazy how we evolved
The nose that bends down on the plane is so neat!
Always love seeing the new kinds of science discovered in the world
Problem solving is a great skill
its my birhday today so have a good day <3 😉
R-51 is AWESOME!
helllo from ohio
I Liked learning about how NASA is trying to find a why to lessen that hit of the sonic boom into a thud instead of a boom noise. I liked learning how batteries was made.
Do they have a safety system set up for if the cameras fail in the X59 plane?
Hydrogen power is so interesting!!
I love inventioneering
Awesome show this week.
whats the most overlooked step of inventioneering that usually determines whether an idea becomes a real invention, and why is it so important
I am so glad that we do science live.
I love science live videos!!!!!!!!!
R51 is so funny!!!
I loved Waynes story!
Science live is awesome!
that was fun and happy thanksgiving weekend
I can’t believe they still do this every week. It must be so much work… Thank you Acellus!!!
Science live was amazing
How do you guys know all this
How did Benjamin Franklin experiment with the leyden jar
Acellus is so fun to learn with!
Hope you guys had a great Thanksgiving!
I wonder how their going to turn that jet into a passenger plane
I never thought that planes had seats that laid down
