Watching others inventioneer is always inspirational!
Science live is awesome!!!!!!!
Could a micro processor be used to make something fly?
Please make a microcontroller available.
Watching from Alabama!
this week’s science live was GREAT!
I think that would be the best in the gold store!
Hi from Georgia!
Thank You Acellus, I enjoyed the education level critical battery going up and down. That was pretty net.
I love science live!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
how old where u when u made the hydrogen house
Hello from Illinois
I love science live!!
Hello from KY!
How do you get ideas for inventions?
I love Acellus!
This episode definitely had more humor than the others!
I still don’t understand how they invent whole computers as small as the Arduino and the Raspberry Pi
I love Acellus!
I would use the board if it was in the gold store
I have so much fun with acellus
Are Touch-Me-Nots related to Forget-Me-Nots? They sound like they are.
Hi from Thailand.
loved this weeks live!
One of the Best Science Live Episodes!
We NEED an Arduino in the store!!!!!!!!
Amazing live as always! Can’t wait for next weeks!!!
I loved the part where one of the girls shows us her pig farm that she built. Sooo cute!
The plant the curls up when you touch it is cool!
Science Live!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think that we all love science live
This was so much fun!! Can’t wait for next weeks!
Hello from Georgia! I love R-51!
I remember seeing the touch me not plant on a hike!
Hi collin here from G.A. can you get the fidget spinner back in the store, I have been checking the store everyday for 6 months and there is still no fidget spinners in stock please change that so I can buy some with my gold coins.
My favorite part is when Roger Billings is in Area 51
Acellus Academy is wonderful!
I love science live.
Who discovered the touch me not plant?
Noo! Not Dr. John leaving for next week! I always enjoyed listening to him, I hope he can do that live broadcast! Also the Inventioneering Club was ABSOLUTEY amazing, I mean both the Proteges and The Inventioneers! 😉
Wishing Dr. John safe travels!
that would be AWSOME I would love to see it!!!
I think a circuit board like the Arduino Uno or Arduino Nano would be a great idea for the Acellus Gold Store. I should probably be named “RB51”
One of my favorite science lives!
Thank you Science Live, today topic was so interesting. Thank you for always making me laugh 🙂
here ‘s an idea for the board (the Better Billings Board).
Seeing the hydrogen car would be awesome!
I can’t wait to see the hydrogen car!
R.51 is very funny.
how would you code Arduino board
Wow the 60th anniversary for the hydrogen car is amazing.
wow! Such a good video today!
Science live was amazing thank you.
Hello from Missouri
I love tuning in to watch science live!!
Thank you Dr. Billings!
I’m all in! Let’s go! Loved the Lego sets!
hello from north carolina
Hi 👋currently from Nebraska, but Missouri soon 😊
I enjoyed watching this science live!!!✨✨✨
this class was amazing. i was really exited to do the pre calculus class and this was verry educational
I look forward to every science live!
I love Acellus
10/10 I like science live
I look forward to having a hydrogen car some day!
Where can you find the touch me not plant?
The history and science today was interesting!
It would be so cool to see the hydrogen car.
I liked Harry Potter from the proteges
I really liked this episode!!
Acellus is good for us to learn , I like this
The lego fortresses were cool
This is one of my favorite lives so far!
Really cool to learn about the new math classes coming! I only have a few more classes until I can graduate maybe I will enroll in one for my last math credit.
Amazing week! Enjoyed the throw back to the hydrogen power!
Too bad I can’t make the trip out this year, but I’ll definitely try to make it next year when I get my license and I can drive myself out there because I’d love to be able to be there!
Hi from Ohio!!
Thank you Acellus team! Congratulations Dr. Billings on the 60th anniversary of the hydrogen car! That’s incredible!
watching from Michigan the robot was so cool!
The microcontroller and pulses being sent through in milliseconds was very interesting and cool.
I really enjoyed learning that plants have a kind of intelligence that allows them to count!
here from florida
Loved learning about the plants!
That’s great that the school would let the kids design electronics.
You are a very smart man!
I love this Science live
Inventioneering with Microcontroller was an amazing episode!
Hello from TX
area-51 excited for you, and the anniversary of your hydrogen car
Great science live this week!
I didn’t know a car could even use hydrogen, pretty cool.
I liked r 51.
I love the science live videos and acellus.
I wonder what grade you have to be in to take the pre-calculus class.
This is so amazing!
Acellus rocks
Love love love this live !!!!
The touch me not plant is awesome! It was so fun to watch this weeks invetioneers building houses for the Lego guys. Happy Anniversary to the hydrogen car!
I really enjoyed this science live!!
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!!
Hello from Texas
The inventioneers are HALARIOUS! “This one is VERY special! He’s from Canada…… He is Canadian Bacon.”
Amazing episode this week!
i would like to have a microchip thing in the store.
amazing live this weeek “!! XD
The inventioneers are so funny!! “This one is very special, he’s from Canada…. he’s canadian bacon.”
Hello from Arkansas
Acellus is awesome!!!
are there hydrogen cars at the acellus headquarters? if so, id love to see one!

I love the touch me not plant.
I always love the science news
I love how every episode is something and new and exciting! I hope they just keep getting better and better!
I think the new microcontroller should be called Billduino… LOL
My grandma has mimosa pudica plants in her garden. She is from Costa Rica.
I loved it, the don’t touch me plant reminds me of a flytrap.
go claudia
Love Acellus!!!
A great hello – from Maine!

I hope I can be an inventor one day!
I really enjoyed science live. They’re always coming out with new courses to keep me interested and engaged!
100% ALL THE WAY!!!
are they still studying why the can tell when it day light or dark
Make it happen! What a great livestream. Also, I am very interested in plant science study. Like it was said, “no one thought radio waves would be needed”!
I can’t wait for Acellus World!!
Lots of love from new York! I love science live!
We love science live
I loved this weeks science live!
Really interesting! Yeah, that would be awesome! Thank you, Dr. Roger Billings.
Loving the Acellus experience
Science live is so fun to watch!!!
I learned about Massimo Banzi from Italy who worked at a school in a team of 5 men who made the Arduino.
To be able to see a hydrogen car over at the Acellus headquarters would amazingly awesome!
Let’s celebrate!
I really like Dr. John part where he talked about the “tickle me plant” and the part where Dr. Tobias talked about the Arduino Uno.
i thought the touch me not plant was really cool
you should do the big boom. That would be sooo cool!
Hello from Florida! i always wait for the science live, I’m learnining a lot.
Hello, this is Hailey and, i wanted to thank you for saving our lives with acellus.
And thank you , Acellus for helping me since 2023.
i learned something new about a plant
The microcontroller is such an awesome idea!!!
Thank you for providing these science lives for us. I enjoy learning new things!
To be able to see a hydrogen car over at the Acellus headquarters would amazingly awesome!
