    It’s cool seeing that invetioneering always connects those hypothetical ideas that serve as a foundation for creating practical and commercial inventions.

    This one was really interesting! I think the black mold growing with radiation is super cool! But wouldn’t it make the astronauts sick? Because it’s mold?

    Reply
  38. Halo

    Mold as a pet? No. Mold as protection for astronauts in space from radiation? Yes. LED means light emitting diode, infrared into red light which is in the visible spectrum. James Clark Maxwell was a theoretical physicist that discovered radio waves with math, calculations, and theory. His skill level was pure theory and intuition. I want to be that intuitive! Must take lots of practice. A spark creates radio waves! A keystone inventor is a visionary that interprets prior discoveries and inventions and makes them practical and commercially viable for society…….I learned so much. Thank you.

    It’s interesting that in the 19 mile range that nobody has lived in since the Chernobyl disaster back in 1986 because of radiation caused by the disaster animals that live there, like frogs have adopted to be able to withstand the radiation, in the cause of frogs by having more melanin in their skin, causing them to be black instead of green.

    Hello Acellus Team and Dr. Billings! These past few episodes have acted as wonderful incentives for us students to become inventioneers, and it’s evident that much work is put into each segment. I gathered much from this lecture in particular, and I am thankful that I did. Learning is such a principal part of my daily life, and I appreciate that as educators, all of you encourage us to lead with curiosity and see where it takes us.
