Hi from PA
My top 3 personal favorite moments in Science Live:
3. R-51
2. Breakthrough Moments with Dr. Tobias
1. The Proteges (David & Caleb)!
hmmm… I think I’m more of a flip flop.
I didn’t know she was the same person that teaches sel,I also liked what the prodigy’s taught today
I like the robot dance and the protege guys are so funny.
I’m very excited about Acellus World. The way the robot was programmed to dace was impressive. Great job and live.
This is so cool and interesting.
Hi again everyone I thought this was a very educational video and something I found interesting was Kelsey because she made her own animated film, she is a model, an actresses,and voices two of her own characters in her animated film. I thought that was very impressive.
I think the “hydrophobic boat” idea with holes would be a pretty bad idea because I think it would make the structure of the boat more fragile.
Hello from Alabama
Hello Science Live! Again, I love the part of the proteges, and it’s honestly my new favorite part of the Science Live! Thank you Acellus and have a fantastic day!
Hello, from Texas.
I loved this live and I loved the robot. See everyone next week!
Hi from Wyoming! Awesome video
Such a cool lesson thank you!
Wow all this stuff sounds so cool!
Hi my name is Malak And I,m from Minnesota
Hello from Georgia!
The temperature on the light wave lengths was awesome.
I like how he tried to figure out how just one white color shined on a glass can make every color using heat and other stuff!
hi, tuning in from Arkansas.
I love watching the videos. This was my first time watching it live
I love expanding my knowledge and discovering new information that I did not know about.
The explanations for the circuits really helped me understand how they worked.
How did we make circuits small enough to fit in modern electronic devices?
So interesting! Loved this weeks Live!
I love your videos
R-51’s serum worked perfectly, I need that serum I want to be as smart as a teacher too.
Hi from Missouri! Seeing the robot dance was cool!
I’m back from break. Now I am in 8th grade. I liked the science live today. And my brother does coding. He took two of the classes now he is doing the third one. Meanwhile me I’m doing ASL.
Hello from Florida so cool
Hello from Texas
Science live is always interesting.
i love ACELLUS
That spider reminds me of a Pokemon called Dewpider.
Science live is awsome!
❤️
I love science live
Science live was so exciting tonight, I enjoyed it a lot!
I love The Protégés.
Everything was super cool🤯
hi from wi
the spider part was awesome!
What if seven segments had less than seven segments?
hiii from nc!!
I loved the acd2 presentation that the robot did and it was dancing very well and singing and I loved the live so much and I hope to see them again next wendsday thank you bye

I thought it was cool how they made the metal float.
Yo I’m Hunter coming from Atlanta
I find it really interesting how robotics work.
Hey from California!!! I really love the Protojes and inventioners! Thanks for having them on science live.
It’s so interesting how just putting microscopic lines on anything can repel water
I like the part about ac d2, singing and dancing .
I like the word socialnal it’s creative
That was so interesting. The robot was the best.
The protégés explain everything so well! I love learning about the 555s and flip flop lol
i want a singing robot
I wonder if we could build a floating house with that hydrophobic metal.
i love acellus
what is a room thermometer?
I enjoyed watching science live.
Hi from Washington
I liked the robot dance
Love the science
Science live is Amazingly Awesome!!!*
hey from buford ga!
Love the episode!
How many times did r-51 try to make that Circuit? I think I’m a 555.
Every video is so fun and different!
Great live as always
Cant wait to see hydrophobic metal used in boats
That spider is so cool!
hello from nd its chilly
Go r-51😍
Hi from Nebraska!
Cool, I liked learning about the hydrophobic metal!
New robot is amazing.. Great show!!
Really enjoyed this tonight
Hi my name is Autumn jones, today live was very interesting, and hit good topics
how can you make the binary decade counter have more than 10 numbers?
hello for Mississippi
Will their be any new tech thing in the gold shop?
Wow so cool its super fun to learn.
Hi from Wisconsin.
loved learning about the temperatures of a prism
I love Social Emotional, I think it is absolutely amazing.
Thank you so much, I liked the boys they were funny
Super entertaining watch this week!
great live yall loved it this week
I love watching and learning about the 555 cool
I can’t make it to Acellus World, so I think that making it available to be accessed online is a good idea.
I love r51 he is so funny.
Binary coding is so cool.
The protege’s are the best addition to Acellus yet in my opinion. They explain everything very well.
Inconcievable
This science live was amazing, the big robot was so cool!
i love learning about tech like flip flops and the 555
science is fun!
Who else had to hear an Xbox 360’s capacitor blow up 🙁
that is why you dont play in side.
Circuts are actually really cool
Good live today, watching from Texas.
I,m 555 team here! Loved this science live!
great science live tonight! thanks for great wednesdays.
Hello from Florida!
I loved this episode and I also love the big boy and how it could dance.
Loved this science I’ve very interested by programming a dance for my robot, and presenting it to you guys
Comment I am sooooo glad there is a girl on the team of Inventioneers!!!! Way to go!
This was a interesting live!!
I’m a flip flop.
It was interesting learning about 2 new types of IC’s, the decade counter and the t-flip flop.
Its impressive how connects work and their duty is.
I like the flip flop joke
I cant wait for the next live! I love learning
I am so excited for the fair
Great Science Live: the skits continues to be both engaging and informative, and overall great presentation and everything!

Had fun today so cool
Science is so fun!
Spiders are so cool and interesting
The Protégés are always so funny 😆 and they are my favorite part of Science Live!
A prism is a piece of glass or plastic in the shape of a triangle. The colors of the rainbow in order are: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.
Do you believe the predictions of the asteroid that is orbiting the earth will eventually actually come into the atmosphere?
Like the singing dancing robot
The hydrophobic metal was very interesting
Now that was a very cool transition haha!*
I really enjoyed this and I learned a lot!
Another great Science Live! Have an amazing Wednesday, everyone!
3D printers are gonna be used for making Acellus items?
Science live is Awesome!!!*
Why dose water spiders have to have such thin lines.
Loved this live! See yall next Wednesday!
Amazing sicence live as always!!!
Hi from Florida!
I’m so happy that i learned something else today!!!

Hey from Taxes.
Such a cool live
Love love love this
Its so crazy that binary code plays a big part in computers!
I am so sad that I can’t go to the science fair 😭 but my friends are going so I will have them to tell me about it later.🙂
Thank you so much for this cool live. Me and my dad said we are 555’s.
I like the Flip Flop thing its a fun name but accurate name! ps: Flip Flop Reminds me of the flip flop sandle
Can’t wait to hear more!
Science is my favorite subject!!
I liked learning about the flip flop switch
The circuits in this live were very easy to undertstand.
Another good live, keep it up
this was very amazing and im so glad i was able to be taught about the light and the temp!!
It is crazy to think that all of these circuits are relatively new inventions.
Thank you! My favorite part was the light—infrared to ultraviolet.
The light prism part and the robot were cool!
Always a great live!!
Social Emotion is one of my favorite classes!! And infrared is definitely my new favorite color. Great live!
