My first time doing this and I already like it!
I love Science LIVE the break through segment is my favorite part.
I’m shocked we as humans have evolved so much and invented so much of the things we use daily like
LED. it’s cool to think about.
I really enjoyed hearing about how mold may be a way to protect our astronauts from the radiation present on Mars.
My mom always told me that all the colors together were white!
I love whenever y’all do science experiments on the live.
How did you come up with the term “inventioneer”?
science is so cool its like magic.
It’s great. Thanks for Acellus
Science feels like magic!

I love Science Live❤️
i liked watching the experiment Dr. Billings did
Science live is always so interesting!
Tobias is so cool.
i learn so much from watching Science Live! I look forward to each week! Knowledge is power!
It was very interesting to learn about how radio waves can travel through the air and make the light come on.
I think all of our Christmas lights are LED
Inventors are inspiring people and also they have came a long way to help today’s society with improvements in a lot of stuff!
Hello from Texas. I love science live
Thank you for teaching me about how LED lights were made.
It is awesome to see the similarities of past magic and modern day science!

I really enjoy Science Live! Thank you 😉
dr John’s videos are really cool! Good job Science Live.
this week has definitely been one of my favorite weeks
I love science! Yay Roger Billings!
Albert Einstein was the smartest person with math.
Great episode definitely, I really enjoyed it. I love Science Live!
Making the spark was magical! Also, how come we can’t see the sparks? When I’m under the blankets, I roll around, make static and I see it. By the way, are sparks and static the same thing?
I liked it when Dr. Tobias talked about LED lights.
One of the things that really caught my attention is where Dr. Tobias talked about that in the 1950s, diodes were around and used for different things. Eventually, people started to experiment with different materials for diodes to see what would happen and what would work. It really is amazing to watch how things get invented and the people that help with the creation of inventions!
I love how just by watching science live, I learn so much!
Learning about the radiation zone and how if affected the wildlife was interesting.
Interesting how you can indicate health by sweat.
I did not know what a coherer was and that it detected radio waves.
I loved seeing Dr. Billings’ radio wave experiment. Additionally, R-51 was hilarious as usual. I’m looking forward to next week’s episode!
It’s interesting how Heinrich Hertz was the first person to detect and produce radio waves, I did not know that!
I love learning about magic and science!
The frog adapted to it’s enviroment! That’s really cool
Love to See the special guest R51 show up!
Looks like magic to me.
I LOVE SCIENCE LIVE!!
Creating a radio wave with such simple things is so cool!! =0
I always love when Dr. Tobias talks he always speaks about cool things!
Hi my name is Bethany I am from Georgia my comment is what are crystals made of.
I Love R-51!!
We were just watching a show about Chernobyl. It’s interesting that animals have adapted to the radiation.
It is wonderful what Acellus provides for their students to help them enjoy learning.
Nice story about LED Tobias. We use LED bulbs in our home and business for years.
I really enjoyed this science live today and I agree that criticism should stay objective and not turn personal. I do have a question for Mr. Billings though, who inspires you the most as a man of science?
Science live is so awesome!!
Science Live is so amazing!! I love it so much, It’s one of my favorite things every week.
Love watching Science Live!
Sometimes science seems so crazy I can hardly believe it isn’t fiction!
Science never fails to amaze me
My favorite part about Science live was the experiment with radiowaves, I find them very interesting.
That lesson on invisible radio waves was super cool, especially thinking about how communication has jumped from just Morse code all the way to the complex systems we have now. It proves that human evolution has made some massive steps! Science Live with Dr. Billings and Pajet is awesome, and you always make this fascinating science feel exciting.
Science Live is so amazing!! I love it so much, It’s one of my favorite things every week.
I was most interested in the segment about the space mold as a pet.
Science Live is so interesting! It gives me something to think about each week!
I always wondered how our phones and WiFi work, and now I get it—it’s the invisible radio waves! That was a really interesting lesson on passing info remotely. Science Live with Dr. Billings and Pajet is truly awesome and makes learning about tech fun.
Science live really is interesting I liked the part where Dr. Tobias talked about the LEDS.
Love this week’s ScienceLive!! So much to think about and ponder on. Y’all have a blessed day 🩷🧬🧪🔬
The Experiment by Dr Billings was awesome!
how fast do radio wave travel
WHY DOES THE ALUMINUM FOIL HAVE TO BE ROLLED INTO LITTLE BALLS?
Science is my favorite subject!
I love watching these with me family!!!! We look forward to them every week!!
R 51 is very funny, and Science live is incredible.
Me and my family love Science Live thank you.🙏
R51 is awesome!
I loved Dr. Tobias’s story about the LED. I also enjoyed this week’s lesson although it feels like a cliffhanger.
I like how just a lighter can turn on a light and a touch can turn it off
I love watching science lives every week!
R51 is my favorite
I love watching experiments that Dr.Billings shows us….. thanks.. And I love watching Science Live
Dr. Tobias did a really good job explaining the LED story and I think that R51 is super funny!!
Hi, I am Bilal from New York. R-1 is super funny, I love science live !
This episode was great! It inspires me to learn more about radio waves.
Keystone inventors have helped shape our lives today and have enabled a student like me to have more opportunities to the field of Science and Technology. It’s very impressive that they were able to do all the things they envisioned with such limited tools and resources. We as students now are capable of so much more and have the access to progress what all the innovators before us have discovered. Hertz with the radio waves can lead to much more now and soon to come.
Science LIVE never disappoints! R-51 was hilarious this week 😂
I really like how Mr. John explains how some frogs can withstand high levels of radiation in certain areas, and it’s crazy how they’re the same species but some have layers on them that can protect them from radiation. I like frogs
Science Live is amazng!
I love watching and learning new things about science
super cool they’re using technology to use sweat to see how your body is doing.
It was great to see how a coherer works. Great experiment!
I have LED light in my room but did not know what it stood for until today. Light emitting diode
Its hard to imagine a world with out radios! Knowing people have to think about things and invent things that dont exsit is really crazy.
I thought this was very interesting and 51 is always hilarious. the breakthrough moments are always the best.
If having a pet mold was possible, then I would name it Fuzzy. But DrB’s little experiment was cool!
I was intruiged by the talk of the radio waves.
Science Live is so amazing!! I love it so much, It’s one of my favorite things every week.
I like tobias part because, I have LED lights in my room and I think they are the coolest thing ever. Because, you can create your own colors or even have the option of choosing a color that are already a color.
VERY COOL i loved how they showed their cool ways of science especially the cool science in the cup.
Radio waves are amazing!
Is there a minimum amount of metal balls needed for it to transfer electricity
r-51 is amazing 🤩
R-51 is always my favorite part! Great episode!
When ever science live is over I get sad but, there’s an episode next week!!!
The discovery of radio waves and the invention of radio was facisnating! I just learned about when the radio became popular, starting in the 1920’s in U.S. History!
Thank you, science live videos helps provide a different way of thinking. Great inventions and new technologies are great ways to improve our lives daily. Nice video.
I’d take a sweat test over blood work any day. I hate needles!
How do you respond when someone criticizes your invention or things you do?
That kit looks awesome! I’m excited to see some new stuff in the Acellus store
Thanks for the studying tips!
R-51 IS SO COOLLLL!!!!
I love R•51 he is the best
That experiment was cool!
I really liked how Dr. John explained how radiation in Chernobyl can affect life there.
Science live is one of my favorite things! Its basically all the best things put together!
When Dr. John was explaining about the radiation, and how that nobody lived there but animals did, I was surprised to see the frogs look so different yet they’re the same kind! I wonder what other small animals would look like? I look forward to more Science live videos!
Science live is so fascinating
I love Dr. Roger Billings!
can you talk about space, Dr. Billings?
Science is so advanced!
Science live is one of my favorite things of all time.
Thank you so much for each and every episode. Science live is truly the best.
Dr. Tobias’ story about LED was nice!
