If it hit dimorphos then how did it change the orbit of didymos?
Magnets creating floating objects–so interesting. Thanks for reflecting.
Wow this science live was great.
i loved this episode it was so interesting
Arduinos are very interesting!!!
Arduino is so cool! Thanks for another great episode!
Another well done video, thanks for sharing this info!
What has been the biggest recorded asteroid in space? How fast was it able to travel?
Learned something new today!
I never new that Arduinos would be so cool I really like learning about it!
The Science Live was incredible!
space is so interesting I think
i loved the live cant wait till next weak
i found out that one of Nasa’s space crafts crashed into a asteroid, and i found that really interesting, thank you for sharing everything with me today.
Hi from Maryland
Learning about Arduino was the coolest yet. Loved this lesson a lot!
One of my favorite lives by far!
hello from Montana!
so awesome…. this is my favorite!
I love learning about space. I loved watching this weeks video!
i found that one of Nasa’s space crafts crashed into a asteroid i found that interesting as well as the details of what happened, such as how they determined how much they can move the asteroid, and how they have been studying the orbit and they found out they changed the orbit rate around didymos around 30 minutes.
how many GPS satellites are there?
Science live is always the highlight of my week! The Arduino was very interesting to learn about!
R-51 is so funny, the alligator falling asleep cause of a boring book is so funny 😂. R-51 just made my day.
the asteroids that could hit earth is cool because the way they show death is everywhere so you should enjoy every thing you have now
Wow! Arduinos are so interesting!!!
I love acellus! It has helped me out so much this year. I wish I would have found it sooner!
thats insane that they can pinpoint such small astroids!!! Thanks alot guys!!
how cool. i love to learn new things!
I like the part with the wisdom joke
Arduinos is so much fun to learn about thank you
Good night from Va
I really love R51!
Really cool how a small science project started your massive career!
Thank you Dr Billings!
This video helped me a lot, thank you guys.
Amazing science live this week!!
these videos are so intresting
Science is so cool
Thank you for the lesson.
How you code a micro-controller?
If there wasnt arduino coding but only the design how would life be
the asteroid impact experiment was so interesting! I didn’t know there would be such a change from an impact.
This was a very cool episode, especially the dramatic part of it
How far would asteroid travel if it got hit by one of our satellites?
i love watching science live.
I think it was cool that Dr. John was talking about deadly asteroids.
I love the small project part
this is so cool as a 3rd grader i love this wow!
Who inspires you?
WORDERFUL! Love this
I thought it was really cool about that comment that is gonna go by in 2029
I like to learn about the asteroid that might hit earth in 2029!
arduinos are very interesting!
Wow! Science Live is amazing!
We went on a nasa trip this week.
I think the goal to make the internet secure is great, the internet can be scary.
An amazing episode !!!
Thank you for another great episode!
Science live is so cool
This episode is one of my favorites ever!
I actually liked R51 this time🤣
Amazing show
Hello from Illinois.
First time here, Arduinos is such an interesting topic!!
Amazing video! Loved it!
Loved the lesson today it was great!!
I love watching these videos I learn something new and it makes me feel better
Ryan gosling!
why would nasa crash the spacecraft into an asteroid
I like this science live it was very cool I like how they were talking about meters.
In my opinion, the idea of destroying the moonlet to redirect the asteroid’s trajectory is very smart. If they perfect this they might actually be able to redirect them away from earth
why would they crash the space craft into a asteroid
I love watching Science Live!
From Texas! Love the Arduino!
this was so cool to watch and learn about
I love I the solar system
that is so cool!!!!!! 😉
I’m so excited for the science fair, I still am not fully sure on what to do.
I find it Interesting that NASA would crash the DART Spacecraft into Dimorphos with it but in a way its a good thing as it shows that it was able to change the speed of the little moon asteroid that was orbiting the bigger asteroid.
how do you build a hydro electric race car track?
It is crazy how from 1969 throw 1971 changes the technology in a sort period of time.
These lives are always so fun to watch!
I think the DART satellite is a great concept. Reasons being: the fact the it can change the course of such a dominant obstacle
Great Science Live!!!!! So interesting!
Hello from Oregon!
I loved learning about gps!!!!!
I’m really interested in Ardunios!!
I liked learning about the Arduino and how to find code for it,
This video was really inspiring
Interesting topic especially about the asteroids!
Hello from New Mexico!
Wow I love Arduinos!
Loved R51!
I love science live
I liked the video of how the dart spacecraft came closer and closer to the asteroid.
The protege’s are so funny and interesting every science live, love the videos can’t wait for next weeks!
This video is useful! Using the Arduino, I think that I can create a motion sensor that can alert a computer if it detects something.

Space is really beautiful
Loved the video
Arduino is cool to learn about!! awesome live!!
The DART mission sounds really interesting!
It’s cool how a science project started your career.
It’s interesting to hear how they did the whole asteroid, satellite thing. I’m glad it didn’t hit earth
The way that circuit boards are is just fascinating to me
It’s really cool how a small science project got you this far!!
I love Science Live!
From florida love to see it.
arduinos are cool to learn about
The science project story was so interesting
Great episode! I’d like to put an AI model on an Arduino that can learn to detect specified objects.
Will this asteroid only be visible for one night or will it be near for a few days?
I never knew about the DART mission, that’s really interesting!
This is my favorite video yet!!
Hello from Louisiana! I find these so interesting!
area 51 has a very imaginary mind
loved this episode! very funny!
