Good stream.
Good luck in the science fair!
How Did They put all those little tiny pieces together into a circuit?
The way the circuts work make so much more sense.
I enjoyed the protégé. I think they are really funny and really cool. Thank you for all you have done for us.
Hi!! from texas!!
Loved this live! -from Georgia!
same lol
Very cool live
may you allow the protege’s to teach a class about inventioneering?
Great idea! I hope they do!
Comment is R51. Sociable
cool live
Í had a fun time learning
I enjoy learning about Integrated circuits. They consist of so many parts like resisters and capacitors.
This was such a cool live!
I think I’m starting to get it
Who invented the aluminum that floats
for real I need of of the stuff!!!
Hi thanks again for teaching us how do you do it?
I knew R2D2 was up to something with that serum!
Every single Science Live helps me learn and better my education 😀
The Protégés are so funny. I can’t wait for every weeks Science Live with the Protégés. Keep up the awesome work.😀👍
Hello, Learning about circuits was interesting.
this is so cool and good.
What is a 555 circuit?
Hi, I’m a flip flop!
i wonder if they can make it count miliseconds
I love science!
Hi from Missouri! I loved the wat the proteges explained everything, it made it so much simpler.
Today it was great I loved that we used 555 and Flip Flop I like the examples too This is Wyatt from Mississippi
I love social emotional class it really helps me learn how to take better care of my emotions!
I enjoy watching David and Caleb! Their hilarious
Hello from tn
So where did the proteges get all the wigs and moustaches? :]
Hello, from FL!
The protege guys explain everything so well.
David and Caleb are very funny!
I have never used a 555 before
hello from Delaware
cool science live!
I enjoyed learning about circuits.
I love the R51 segments, he cracks me up everytime
Is science still a hobby for you Dr. Billings?
I think it’s interesting that prisms can split light.
My top 3 personal favorite moments in Science Live:
3. R-51
2. Breakthrough Moments with Dr. Tobias
1. The Proteges (David & Caleb)!
that is too true
Cool video thanks for this one have a blessed day.
I like the singing robot very neat.
The super hydrophobic tubes were cool.
How many circuits are there?
Hi guys, I love watching the science live!
Learning about circuits today was nice!
Hi from Minnesota
Nice live
this was so interesting i loved it
heyyy cool live today watching from Montana
I loved seeing the big ac d2 .
thanks now I now all the names to the circuits
This video is going by extremely quickly
i find it interesting that by just using 0 and 1 you can form communication
Integrated circuits are amazing, they’re the reason modern tech works so well, it’s crazy how much power fits in one tiny chip.
Hi from Costa Rica!!!
That was awsome
great lesson on circuits. Hi from MD
I think social emotional is an important class because it allows other students to improve behavior for the better, and has the ability to make the world a greater place.
I love watching science live because I learn so much.
these lives are always amazing. keep it up!!
What is wires made out of
I’d consider myself a Flip-Fop.
When is the Aviation course coming out?
Would having and understanding of how Circuits work be help full in space?
Hi from N.Y
I hope the big robot works out! Hi from Indiana.
I love the dancing robot!!
The portages are so fun to watch best part of the video👍
Another Wednesday, another episode! ❤️
Don’t throw balls in the lab
LOVE THE VIDEO CANT WHAT TO SEE THE NEXT ONE.
Hello from NC!!!
she accomplished so much at a young age wow. maybe that will be me one day.
I love how they can teach us about binary switches in an hour!
It seems the decade counter is simple but complex.
That was funny its always good to see R-51
sel is always my fav class!
This is so interesting!
Hi from Lufkin
I enjoyed the topic that Dr. John gave tonight.
Hi from Nebraska!
Hello from Mississippi
It’s amazing how easy it is to make a timer by just understanding what the circuits do!
What year was coding first used and who invented it?
Circuits are very interesting.
That’s a very cool and big robot!
That’s cool how all those components come together on the circuit board.
HELLO from SC, love these!!
Hello from Virginia
I want a pet spider.
hello from tx
I learned alot from David and Caleb. They are awesome!
how does the capacitor work?
I loved how the robot danced, it was pretty fun, plus the song was awesome!
The circuit part was interesting!! how many different types of circuits exist?
Hi from IL
Hello, cool live!
R51 is fun to watch
So right
Omg YES😆
How cool!! HI from Wyoming. 🙂
Caleb and David make the circuits easy to understand which kelps me personally.
This is so intresting
These guys are always amazing!
Social emotional is a good class because it shows how to be a better person. It shows how you can live a better life and be a kinder person to other people.
I agree.
I love how circuits work and the way the wires build together to make a magnificent peice of technology
binary code is so fascinating
Hi from IL.
Please keep doing these videos they are helping
I like this alot, really interesting!
NICE LESSON!!!
love the video
that is funny is fake mustache
The protoge’s explanation of binary was amazing!
Hello! Here from VA.

I loke how they explain everything so that it can easily be understood, no matter the complexity. Keep up the good work!
Dancing robot was awesome.
I like the show
Hello from Georgia!
where or how does the number get stored in the circuit?
Comment It’s amazing how far out technology has came, and. Can’t wait to see what future technology holds for us.
I like the part were the robot did a dance and sang

Looking forward to next Wednesday
issac from MD
Excited for my first show!
The robot ACD2 was very cool. I like that it was blue and the dance movements it made. I also liked how William Hershel’s discovery from Newton’s prism about the colors had different temperatures.
How were you able to do that in less that ten minutes
Coding is really fun I’m glad to be learning more about it.
This is cool
