Imagine having your house being hydrogen powered! How interesting would that be.
I love science live
I didn’t know it was law for aircraft not to make a sonic boom. I’d guess it’s really reasonable, considering the effects.
why did they want to break the sound barrier
Hi from Texas
Hi, good evening. Abimael from SC
Happy late thanksgiving!! I hope it was amazing for all of you guys! I’m thankful for science live.
This is so entertaining!
Roger Billings thank you for this science live. It was awesome. Thank you for everything you do for us.
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!!!
thank you science live for the awesome lessons!
I feel like there should be some kind of failsafe on the X-59 and future supersonic aircraft, due to it relying on cameras.
Hydrogen is so interesting, that’d be cool if homes could be hydrogen powered!!
Happy late thanksgiving this science live was very enjoyable I can’t wait for the next live😄
Science live is seriously awesome, and Dr. Roger Billings is so cool!
i love dr rodger!!!
i love science lives
science live is awesome its changed my perspective on so many things!
That old battery looks so cool, I’ve never really seen one that big.
I never actually realized how batteries were made or how the idea was actually brought up but now that I know that is actually so cool
The jet was awesome! My favorite plane is a Boeing 747-400. I hope to design planes one day.
How is the earth a conductor and is able to help send electrons across the world for long distance messages?
The X-59 jet is a pretty interesting invention, especially the tip to reduce the sonic boom.
Happy thanksgiving from Norfolk!
This was amazing to learn about! I can’t wait for next weeks video, Dr Roger Billings!
It would be interesting to see a AAAA battery.
The jet looked really cool
Science live is always interesting.
Hi! Kai from South Dakota, happy December!
I like being able to see the other comments 🙂
HI im so ready to Learn today
Hope you had a great time in California !
I love this episode great work!
How do you split hydrogen and water apart?
I love the desire Ben had so discover and experiment. It just goes to show persistence is key.
Tesla was a great inventor
who made the word inventioneering?
What things are being currently invented that can be of major help in todays world?
Inventing seems like a great goal!
hi from Costa Rica
Its so interesting learning about evolutions of different objects especially batteries that was really cool.
I loved the jet and this science live in general!!
HYDROGEN POWER IS A EFFECTIVE METHOD.
Happy Thanksgiving! I think that gratitude is so important. I’m so grateful for Acellus and Science Live!
Love this video, it’s always nice learning new, fun, meaningful things!
Designing jets to direct sound away from the ground is incredible!
Inventioneering is awesome thank you for this live!
I am learning a lot from this LIVE program.
it was interesting learning about battery’s.
Hi from Costa Rica *
Thank you for this live, very interesting!
I love dr Roger billing’s .!!
This is the highlight of my week! Love science live with Roger Billings!
I wish my home was hydrogen powered
Who came up with the word inventioneering ?
Science live is the best
Interesting how to measure radiowaves with a few items we have in the house.
R51 IS COOL.
This science live was amazing!
I learned some cool stuff! Thanks for the lives!
Thank you for teaching us so much about Science!
I love Dr. Roger Billings!!!!!
I wonder if there is a way to see out of the cockpit without the cameras because what would happen if those stop working. Everything in life is more manageable when you take steps at a time instead of only looking at the end.
can’t wait to keep learning how to invent
Dr Roger Billings is a amazing! 👍
Is “inventioneering” a popular term in the science world?
Thank you for the opportunity to keep learning more! Hello from Brazil!!
I liked when they talked about how nasa is trying to reduce the sonic boom’s noise.
Dr Roger billings is so cool
From new jersey and what made you become so into science.
I learned about the 9volt battery and how it was made.
Hello. Good night. Thank you for being here again
this science live is fun!*
Hydrogen is awesome!
Learning about planes was super interesting.
Science live is amazing!!
Learning about the new x-51 plane genuinely interested me and I believe would be useful in combat somehow.
It’s cool that batteries first came from jars, liquid, and metal.
It was really interesting learning about planes.
I really enjoyed learning how batteries are processed to produce energy.
I love science live!
This was so interesting!!
are you able to make homemade laiden jars
Joining from SC!!
the power of hydrogen is amazing.
Hello from Brazil! Thank you for the opportunity to keep learning more!
Living in a place that is powered by hydrogen would be SOO amazing!! I wish I could experience something like that 🙂
I didn’t know that about jets, kinda weird that a sonic boom is illegal but makes sense a little bit.
R-51 singing is hilarious.
i love Acellus
Mis Paget is pretty
Here from indiana
Science is so fun!
The air craft looks like it would be a type of shark lol.
i honestly didn’t know it was illegal for a jet to go that fast and i didn’t even know it was possible to go that fast….
Best energy source hydro or solar?
An airplane’s speed is dependent on air pressure, as air density changes with altitude and affects the force of lift an aircraft needs to fly.
Heat seeking missiles use infrared sensors to track and destroy targets by locking on to their heat signature, typically from a jet engine.
How do people actually come up with the idea to create an invention
Ikr Dr Roger Billings is amazing
I like seeing new things
i enjoy watching science lives and doctor billings teaches so much
Hello from nv!!
Happy Thanksgiving Acellus!
I can’t wait to invent something, its cool to think how we progressed from stones and trees, to radio waves and this “big nose” planes.
R51 is amazing
Tuning in from Texas!
This episode was really interesting to me.
I learn so much cool stuff watching science live
Inventing something takes a long time and lots of people. For example, the 9 volt battery was invented due to the inspiration of Ben Franklin’s Leyton Jar!
heyy!! from south ga!!
I want to make a Layden jar!
I like the learning activities and making a book and the art activity is my favorite
Science LIVE is the best!
Another amazing episode!!! Thank you for giving us so many opportunities to learn!!
Mohammad from Virginia amazing live!
What would happen if gravity suddenly disappeared for 10 seconds?
I love science lives !!!!!!
Now I understand how planes work on the nose cut I see videos where the plane’s nose just dips down 😁
Everyone at Acellus, thank you for your hard work!
The jet looks very cool!
This was interesting!
Wow! I never never fibers were ran through the ocean.
I’m really interested in the book activity thing.
I think it would be cool to have my name in a history book as an inventor.
I love DR. billings!!
thanks for this awesome video i liked it
I want to learn more about jets.
I know I always say this but, I love how you explain everything so well, it makes me understand it better.
Thank you Dr Billings!!!
What jets can go to the speed of sound?
Does R51 have any siblings or hobbies?
Science yay!!!
could you guys make a aero dynamics class
I get the joke 180 degree turn. Haha
I really liked the jet part.
It really is a luxury to have access to such a brilliant school with very intelligent teachers and staff.
I like how science can create new cool things
I love watching Science Live.
Hydrogen power in my house hold would be very interesting to have compared to what i have right now
Very good video would love to watch again!!!
Learning science is so cool!!
So was power discovered *that we know of* by the use of the laden jar or was electricity produced or found before that?
I love science live!!!
Science Live is really cool for learning new things.
amazing science live today love listening to Dr Roger billings
I am so excited for this weeks video!
science is amazing can’t wait to learn more!!
how did Benjamin Franklin, experiment with Leyden Jar?
Hydrogen power wold be amazing! Cant wait for more exciting reserhc on this topic.
how did Benjamin Franklin experiment with Leyden Jar?
Thank you for helping me learn more about Science and Engineering.
The jet was awesome, and R51 was amazing as always.
hello from nevada!
how to make the first battery
Who first discovered “the sonic boom”?
I love how y’all are always so happy and excited it gives off good vibes
I liked the x-59 because it’s windowless.
Dr Rodger Billings always has something amazing to say!
I thought it was so cool how the first company to use the transistor radio was connected to a mentor of Mr. Roger Billings!!
I liked seeing that old radio and learing about it.
Hello From NV thank you so much for being such an inspiration
I never heard about the Leyden Jar until this video. Very interesting invention!
How did Benjamin Franklin experiment with the Leyden Jar?
inventioneering is a interesting word to kown
I thought all of the takeoff and landing was controlled by computers and planes. Is it true for this new plane?
Could hydrogen power a house better than solar panels?
What is one easy first step for a kid who wants to invent something.
I wonder how long it took them to design and build the super sonic plane!
The jokes at the beginning always make me giggle. Thank you!
I love Science LIVES!
its cool that the battery we use today originated from a electric jar!
ive always love jets fun to see one in action
It was very interesting to learn that Benjamin Franklin came up with the name “electric batteries” for the Leyden jars he was using for some of his experiments.
Hello from Texas.
