it is interesting how someone’s health can be calculated through sweat
That’s really cool Dr. b
The story around the origins of radio waves with Hertz and Maxwell was very interesting . Great episode .
I think itās crazy that there is something good about mold.
I love learning about new concepts
I’m very curious about your hydrogen engine production, and can you just turn any engine hydrogen powered?
I like learning about scientists and their theories
I’m surprised that mold grows faster in radiation.
Good try R-51 but you’ll never be as smart as Dr. Billings.
I never realized how interesting radio waves are! Very cool live!
i never knew that mold can do that, that is cool.
I didn’t know that radios could do that. I want to know how far away you could have been to make the light turn on?
I love the science live also love science!
Mr. Billings i really like your watch
Always love learning from these science lives.
dr john!!!!!!
Hello from CO. I will be looking for the kit!
I love watching R-51 at the end of the videos he’s so funny.
Hi from Texas what is a whatās different from an atom and a neutron how are they different.?
Loved this live DrB!
R-51 you really are your own genius.
R-51 makes me laugh every time I watch the science live!
Why when people go to space they say there bones are weaker is that because of the radiation.
Hello from Vietnam, we love science live. Thank you for another great video Still doing my best to be an inventor!
Learning about how radio waves are made and how radio waves can light a light bulb is intresting.
Canāt mold make people sick?
Hi I am Raven and my question/comment is is it possible that inrfo red has a similar chemical compound to red light therapy ?
The coherer was such an awesome thing!
I should maybe try making one at home.
I love science live,and I look forward to it every week so I can learn new things.
I hope I’ll become a keystone inventor one day!
I would really like to try the kit once it is in store.
You should do more kits in the Acellus store! That could be really interesting.
Love science live! And also even learning about radio waves
Dr.Johnās technology spotlight is my favorite segment
Very enjoyable, great to hear about the progression of communication methods discussed across multiple Science Live broadcasts.
Interesting cup transmitter. Totally want to make one.
I want to be an inventor
Dr. Billings is an actual genius
them making stuff to analize our sweat to see if we are healthy is so cool
Learning about radio waves, and electricity is so cool!
I 100% agree with the student spotlight. Thanks to Acellus it is easy to stay on track and take the necessary classes for our future. See you next week!
I think its so cool that there is a light we can’t see. Thank you for such a cool story, Tobias.
I didn’t realize just how much it took for a radio to work. Makes me appreciate it more. And I love to hear all of the stories that everyone shares!
Great episode! Thank you Acellus team for inspiring me everyday! Hope everyone is doing good!
that’s so cool your going to put a kit in the store? thank you Dr.B!!!š«¶

I love it when Mr. Billings teaches us something new!
These are my weekly highlight.
I love Acellus it helps me learn at my own pace
How did the Chernobyl disaster happen? I really think it would be a good topic for a future Science L!VE video since there is definitely more to it.
Loved seeing the experiment with the light turning on!
If mold eats away radiation, will the mold become radioactive?
I really enjoyed todayās Science LIVE! The message about becoming a ākeystone inventorā really stuck with me. Dr. Billings makes science feel so exciting and possible for everyone. Thank you for another amazing episode!
I love the encouragement to invent and use our imaginations that Science Live gives.
That is so cool how a spark conducts electricity!
The idea of a Keystone Inventor helped me realize how one personās strengths can hold a whole project together and made me think about what role I play in a team.
I have always dreamed of being on science live
Dr Roger Billings does your mind ever stop. You are always coming up with ideas.
Oh Wow! This is awesome!
That so awesome youāre going to put a kit in the Acellus store! That so awesome Dr.B!
You make learning about science fun!! Thank you from Ohio
I always enjoy these.. lol but this one was very funny and interesting!! Cant wait for next weeks live!
I was so interesting learning about inventions today!
I absolutely love science!

HI i ‘m from Alabama I love learning new things
Loved this Science Live! Gonna try and to save up for the shirt in the Acellus store.
it was really neat learning about radio waves and I can not wait to see the kit in the Acellus store.
Hello from Kentucky I love the live videos!
What other things, when exposed to radiation, respond positively instead of negatively like mold?
I love to learn new things every week thank you
R-51 is great. Hi from VietNam
We love science live!
R-51 is too funny! always makes me laugh!
R-51 is the best!!!
If you add more aluminum balls in the cup with the glow of the light get stronger or stay the same?
I love it when R-51 makes an appearance.
John always has something interesting to say.
I just love science and learning new things!
Iām so proud of myself for almost being done with junior year in only December! Thanks Acellus!!
What challenges do you think inventors face when creating something new?
Love learning new things from these lives
Does it matter which type of tinfoil you use for this experiment?
Here from South Carolina, love the little funny clips at the ends.
Science live is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have been saving up all my gold coins so far.
Hi from Israel
I didnāt realize you could grow anything in space or that Mars had radiation
What level of spark intensity is required to create light?
I LOVE SCIENCE LIVE – I LEARN A LOT
R-51 sooooooooooooooo smart
Acellus is an outstanding online learning platform. Its engaging video lessons, adaptive learning system, and clear course structure make studying both effective and enjoyable. It truly supports students in learning at their own pace while still achieving excellent results.
I love watching yall!
Does the alluminum foil have to be in a spherial shape? Could let be in small squares or triangles instead and still work?
The black mold going to mars would be really cool!
“Magic is like science, except science is real.” Make that into a shirt!
That live was so GOOD canāt wait for next weeks!!!
R-51 is very fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun!
I wouldnāt bring mold as a pet but I think it would be fun to bring a hedgehog!
We wait all week to see R51!
I really enjoyed this Science Live episode, especially hearing about other families experiences with the program.
I learned that when you make a spark, it creates a radio wave and that most of science is magic š
A lot of inventions are named after the people that made them.
i love the new acellus shirts in the store! im saving up to buy one with my gold credits!
Edouard Brany’s invention is proof to not give up on your invention, you’ll find yourself with a different kind of success!
Loved the science live ā¤ļø
The ways science is used in these events, could turn from impossible to possible. There is at all times the reason why other people want you to not make the impossible turn to possible. Many of these invention alone wouldn’t be here if the scientists and inventors didn’t do the impossible.
It is cool to see how inventioneering works and the many different parts that go into things.
I’m doing the electrical engineering course so it was nice learning how a diode works.
Good video! I loved seeing the parent show us how to optimize our graduation path!
Interesting how the frogs have adapted
I learned about LCD lights. We use lights for everything.
What an interesting lesson about how we can communicate through radio waves!
Learning about radio waves was so intresting. Science Live always has so much cool information.
Science live is always interesting!
That kit is going to be really cool. Itās cool how the sound can make the light turn on as well .
Loved it as always! The history of LED was so cool!
Thank you so much, Acellus Academy for the Science Live! Always love the R-51 jokes!
Hello Acellus Family,
Watching from Science Live from Italy.
I was wondering where was radiowaves created?
Thank you.
Science Live is always interesting. Using radio waves to make the light bulb light up was so cool.
Crazy how something as simple as a coherer was the start wireless communication. Cool demo!
Could we get the area 51 glowing sign in the Acellus store?
Is “Inventioneering” a real word? If not, is there any way to put it in the dictionary??
Awsome, science live is fun. I love home school
Hi from Michigan the robot looks really cool!
I thought the experiment was pretty cool, it shocked me.
If you could travel to any planet in our solar system, which one would it be and what scientific experiments would you conduct there?
a pet I would want to take to mars would be a tortoise because they need littel food.
Wow! Dr.B is so awesome! Who knew he could create a car run by hydrogyn? He totally beat the others!
One of the most interesting science lives ever, and i would rewatch this 51 times.
Hearing about great inventors really makes me wonder what even someone like me can do
Hello from Bulgaria ! Science live was great today.
Black mold can protect the astronauts from radiation but isnāt it very bad to breathe in?
Acellus bot plushsies? also did pajet reference the movie “now you see me, now you don’t”
I watched the science live on my siblings’ computer, and it was fun watching the light bulb stuff!!
I would love to learn more about radio waves!(P.S: And buy that new kit!)
Hello from Uganda! I’m very interested in the usage of led lights in substitute to other more expensive bulbs, especially in a context where electricity is difficulty to obtain. Can they be used in conjunction with solar equipment?
That magic was amazing!š²
Loves the experiments this week!
I love to learn with Acellus
In Inventioneer – Keystone Inventor, what key quality must a player focus on when designing inventions to ensure they successfully solve real-world problems?
Is the Coherer that happens to the little balls, some type of polarization of the material?
Thank you for sharing the process on how to recreate the science experiment that you did in Area 51, with radio waves. It was amazing and I learned something new today! Thank you.
The experiment was like magic. Very interesting!
R-15 is hilarious! Love science live! *
The experiment was like magic. Very interesting.
A kit in the Acellus store? That’s amazing!
These science lives are so interesting š
hi im from south-africa
r-51 is super funny!
How strong does the spark need to be to make a light?
Always enjoy logging onto these Science Lives!
Science live = boosts my energy
I am from sitka alaska and I love everything you guys do!!!!
R-51 is sooo funny.
Hi from South Africa!
I find it very interesting that people genuinely want to live on Mars.
Are coherers still used a lot today?
Dr. Roger I was curious if you were to expand the amount of cups filled with tin foil ,would you need a bigger spark?
Hi from Illinois Acellus academy is awesome
Happy holidays Roger!
Invention of the radio waves is really cool!
R51 is hilarious!
Hi from Illinois, I love acellus
This Science Live episode was awesome! loved hearing Rodger Billings explain Maxwells invention! Cant wait to learn more
i think its really cool that just from the flame of the lighter you can make the light turn on, simply from the radio waves.
Really inspiring episode, I love R-51!
Science live is always fun to watch, especially when it is Tobias due to the dad jokes.
Hi, from NC here, Iād like to say that the radio wave making the lightbulb light turn on was pretty fascinating! Pretty cool, Acellus, pretty cool
