How can you get one of these Gold keys or cards?
It’s so cool how something so seemingly small can change your world!
Hi from Texas!!!
I didn’t know what Arduinos were until this episode!! thanks Dr. B!!!
Thank you for teaching me about the Arduino!
Hi from Oregon
Another splendid Science Live video as always.
hello from missouri, R51 made me laugh! So funny. i love science live.
Great science live! I’m about to graduate, I have two classes left. They are both at 90% complete thank you so much for allowing me the opportunity to finish school in a safer environment from my house.
This science live was more interesting than most of the others.
The Arduino is so cool! Thanks for this episode!
Great video, thank you Dr. Billings!

I liked the discussion on the role of arduinos in building robots and managing electronic components. It’s cool that this technology has assisted the US military. I also think it’s cool how they found that meteor crater at the bottom of the sea.
I love Acellus and its teachers
R – 51 might be my favorite part!!
we love the weekly skits! Can’t wait until next week!
I think this episode of science live was very funny, I enjoyed how it was able to teach and be silly at the same time.
it was fun learning about microcontrollers
very cool video, I learned a lot from it! looking forward to next weeks video!
We love silly R-51 wouldn’t want him to change, lol.
I didn’t know your science project started your career!
The Arduino was very interesting to learn about.
Had never even heard the word “anduino” until this.
I love science Live!
amazing video, the most interesting thing about this video was the projects.
Wisdom has stopped chasing me. Now it just waits a few paces ahead and trips me until I learn. 😆
I saw a news story about a microchip being sent into a black hole in space in the near future. I would love to see what information it gets. We thought that light could not escape a black hole, but now we know that isn’t true because of new information from new technology.
Arduinos are interesting. Cool episode.
The Sherlock and Clue references are so funny! Very silly episode lol
We love learning on science live, excited to see what happens this week.
Science live is awesome and we how fun R-51 is, lol.
Jordyn said “I would use the controller to run a dinosaur robot.”
This was also our first video here!
I enjoyed this video and is inspired how something so small is turned into a very successful career.
This program is amazing it gives me so many opportunities!
that is so intreresting! i absolutely love these
Wow, this was a very inspirational video. Something that was as simple as a project is turned into a successful career.
Curious if the card will be compatible with an iPad.
I love these ❤️
I really enjoyed watching this and can’t wait until next weeks.
I love how science works
Arduino is very interesting. The software Arudino, uses sounds very complex and useful. I would love to learn about how weather tracking software’s function and are pretty accurate most of the time! God Bless!
The Arduino was very interesting! I’m so excited about graduating! just got the email it’s official, my diploma is in the mail! Thank you Acellus team for making these years so enjoyable to learn! You really saved me and my education because when I was in public schools, I was failing and the teachers were giving up on me. Thanks to your program it made it easier for me to understand the teachings. This program is amazing and Science Live is a good way to learn things not taught in the classes.
I like did the part where they were talking about the huge little circle around the Earth and how they wanted the change stuff about the world
This was a great science live!!
Another great video!!! I loved the science live video and learned a lot of amazing things.
Such an amazing story. Mr. Billings has done much in this world and changed many lives. And thanks too all others putting in the work for us.
Congrats!
congratulations
Congrats Landon
that is awesome because I was there once to but with Acellus I feel like I am doing a world better
Congratulations!!!
Congrats!
Congrats, Landon! I hope you have a fullfilling career or if your going to the military! Or whatever you are going into! I’m glad you found Acellus!
This is very awsome!
We love miss pajet!
It so amazing how interesting arduinos are
The arduinos are interesting. Another great science live! Thanks Dr. Billings!
The arduinos are very interesting and r-51 is really funny
How a small project can change your life… WOW !
I really loved R51’s part it was hilarious
I know its insane how much it can change!!
I liked hearing about the dart mission, Science Live videos about space are my favorite, they’re always interesting.
I love these so much!! ❤️
Arduino was so interesting! and R-51 was funny
r-51 is so funny! the alligator trick was the best lol!
R-51 is so funny! Keep it up!
R51 is hilarious!!! I love watching these lives whenever and wherever I want! Keep it up
R-51 is so funny i love these videos
yes, Tobias
I love science Live.
I love the Sherlock Holmes skit this week!
Sherlock Holmes skit was funny
I loved the Watson and Holmes segment of Science Live.
When he said 8000 transistors I was surprised but when he said 500,000 I was amazed!!
I always look forward to these weekly videos.
R51 was so funny!
This episode in particular was very fun to watch. I give credits to all those that acted, they did an amazing job. This lesson is also very interesting and I will for sure continue to watch Science Live.
Good Morning from Dallas Tx!! the Arduino WoW
That was to funny about catching a Alligator lol
love science live..
Love the Sherlock Holmes parody!
what do you mean a NASA space craft on purpose crashed in to a asteroid
R51 is always the best)
might be my favourite science live yet!
When he used those chopsticks, it cracked me up.
This was really interesting about learning about the amazing Arduinos.
wow I learned a lot in this live very interesting topic.
I loved this episode of Science Live!
Thank you for teaching me about Gary Boone! Columbia SC
Love the Protoges! They are both so funny^^
This was so interesting. I can’t wait to watch another one next week.
Science is so intresting !!!
The Arduino is pretty interesting.
I enjoyed hearing new things about Arduinos. Thank you.
It’s cool how the stuff changed
I loved this week’s episode, always so much fun watching this every week! Much love from Tennessee!
Hello from Texas!
The were all the same thing and he wanted to make a chip.
i was impressed by the images of the asteroid and arduino is so cool. Thanks for the video
I love learning about Arduinos!!
Arduinos are fun and very interesting!
I really liked the protégé segment and I would like for Mr. Tobias to do his breakthrough segment every week. I thought the arduino was cool. I would like to learn how to use it and program it. I also wanted to know if Mr. Billings would be willing to add the arduino and accessories to the Acellus store and can be something that students get with credits if possible? My mother wanted to know how to get the gold card? Also when NASA hit that asteroid did pieces break off and become projectiles?
Arduinos are pretty interesting
this was an amazing science live
This is so cool!! Especially about the asteroid.
how many GPS satellites are there?
r51 is so hilarious!
HI from NY
I love weather, will there be a weather episode someday?
where can I get goldkey?
Arduinos are so interesting, I can’t wait to see what next
This was an awesome video!
Thank you for teaching me about how calculators were made. It would be cool to blow up an asteroid in outer space.
David and Caleb as Holmes and Watson was great to watch
Hello from Florida thanks for the lesson
I’m so excited for the science fair!! Can’t wait!!
hey mr billing arduinos are very interesting i would love to learn more
I just love the creativity to do the investigation thing like Sherlock Holmes its so funny haha
I looked this weeks science live episode! I also loved learning about asteroids.
I love Acellus!
The dart project is cool! Imagine changing a whole asteroid’s circut? What would happen however, if we change it’s movement and it accidentally hits our moon or different planets? Would that be dangerous, or cause future problems? Like if a huge piece of that asteroid hit our moon and most of the moon can’t cover up the sun? Also I love listening to Tobias! He’s so cool!
you should do a live on meteorology!
Learning about Arduinos in the lesson was interesting. Learning about the other things was interesting too. This epoisode was more interesting than the last one
I love how you decided that you wanted your career to be in science . Thank you Mr Roger’s and Ms lady Pajet Monet!!❤️❤️
I liked learning about the asteroids, and how to intersept them.
I think capturing videos of asteroids approaching Earth would be fascinating to see and stop them before they hit Earth. I think Tobias is very fun and smart. I really like his segment of information. Acellus is an amazing learning tool for students all over the world.
I love Acellus amazing show.
Could DART satellites change the course of a huge asteroid?
Amazing Science Live like always!
Science live is so cool!
These science lives make me even more interested in different kinds of science, I love it!
I can’t believe one project made you famous.
I love learning about new things in science live.
R51 is very funny lol.
arduinos are cool
Amazing! We can do a lot of things in real life with micro controller.
I will try to watch the asteroid pass in 2029. Using titanium nitrite on the gold keys is a good idea. The cards and keys will make internet security easier. How did Dr. B. come up with the idea for his science fair project?
I’ve been thinking about getting a telescope lately and this Science Live convinced me more.
Wow so cool and interesting
I love the area 51 part it’s so funny!
This is actually pretty cool.
r51 is so funny
Here from Kentucky!
Wow! I enjoyed this episode!
Arduino is really cool!!
I loved this video! I’m Makenna Swancutt
the design of the computer is brilliant!
Good luck trying to get the aligater in the box! Alligaters are bigger than that little one. Where can you get the Gold key usb at?
2029… so close, yet so far away…
I liked learning about the Arduinos.
Hello from the Pacific Northwest! Thanks for another interesting show, I like the Acellus updates.
Such a cool video. Love this!
how many satilites are in space today.
hello from chicago
i love this science live!
in this science life i learned about “the Amazing Arduio”
how many GPS satellites are there?
I like the gold key looks awesome
How could we ever skip the amazing Tobias?? I find it interesting how (from what I understand) everything was integrated into 1 chip, the ram, processing, and everything, then they moved away from it, then in 2020 apple released their apple silicon which was all integrated into one chip.
I want to go to Acellus World someday!
i learned some pretty interesting things, like about the asteroid binary pair and didymos and dimorphos
I love learning about space
This was honestly so educational and i love getting to continue to learn and hear about all these awesome experiments
R15 always makes me laugh what a great science live
i think it’s amazing that we are figuring out how to save earth from asteroids!!
I wonder what counts as an experiment
Such a amazing ep i would love to learn more in the future
So happy I get to tune into this interesting vid every week!!
learned about the asteroid binary pair and transitors, pretty cool
This video was absolutely amazing!
can we learn more about space?
the videos get so much better and funner
I did not know that the NASA space craft hit the asteroid
Very interesting, enjoyed learning about Ardunlino.
It’s so crazy how a small, simple science project became into such a big and successful career.
This is really amazing indeed
I love Arduinos.
Awesome science live. I liked it. From Virginia
This was one of my favorite episodes thus far!
Using a spacecraft to move an astroid is fascinating!
WOW THATNK YOU FOR ALL THESE LIVES!
yeah how many GPS satallites are there
science live really helps me understand science on a deaper note!
So excited for another great one!!!!
Arduinos are very fascinating!
I hope we are actually able to redirect asteroids away from earth in the future.
Arduinos are so awesome!
This is super cool!
loved learning about the arduino, so excited for next week!
This was a great video. And I never thought you would talk about the arduino so that really cool!
How big was the comet/meteor that caused the Silver Pit crater to form?
I love to watch R 51 on Science Live! He is so funny!
The Arduino is cool
I love science!
Amazing thank you!
How did hitting dimorphos change the orbit of didymos as well?
like that steroid earth tech can detect and estimate when and where a asteroid may hit or pass but only by a radius which the smallest thing could impact that and change course and the slightest degree off could be enough to hit earth.
