Pretty interesting, and just about everything now uses microcontrollers. Thanks Acellus staff.
What is the difference between an Arduino board and a microcontroller.
I like learning about the touch me not plants!
Inventioneering with a microcontroller is the process of creating and building innovative projects using small programmable devices.
I actually find joy in watching science live! its interesting and the anticipation of waiting for the next episode is truly fun!
Loving Acellus
Acellus is always exciting!
Howdy from Texas! What amazing new information!
Hi. I’m Maddie from Texas. Ready to learn about Science?
Hi from kentucky!!
Acellus is the best!!
Hello from Illinois.
First time here like what you guys talked about and with this I learned that there is much more to things that happen inside of things we can’t see.
I would love it if you put some of those cool little boards in the store!
The protégés did great!!!
I enjoyed this episode!
Area 51 is my favorite, he’s funny, and his filter is really cool.
Hello from Georgia!
Making my wednesdays fun!! Acellus is the best!

Hello from Tennessee! It was another great Science Live!
Let’s do it!
Hello from Virginia! 💗
The Area 51 clip is funny
This video was great!!! Loved it so much! 💕
Science live is the best!!!
The plant changing its cell shape is so cool I didn’t know cells could do that! An Acellus Arduino would also be cool to have in the store so hopefully that gets enough people’s support.
The Arduino is so amazing!
The plants were so interesting!
I really liked the claw and I would want one too! Super cool!
Can’t believe it’s going to be the hydrogen car 60th anniversary.
I LOVED this science live!
That looks awesome!!
Yay Science
Are they still studying how the plant are counting the days?
That study is really interesting with ChatGPT
Let’s goooo
Well happy anniversary for your hydrogen car!!
I am from Nebraska

I did not know that if you touch the plant it will close up to protect itself.
Greetings from Alabama!
I want to see that in real life
ME
We should do a ginormous shindig

Absolutely loved this live, the informative and funny mix always makes the science live fun to watch
Interesting to see the 555 computer turn the light bulb on and off with the sensitivity.
r51 is being good
Dr. Billings said with a short and long waves you can make things move things move and make the wings move way or the other. So, could micro processor be used to make something fly?
That is very interesting to think about👍👍
R51 is great. Lol
R-51 always makes me laugh!
R51 is funny – reminds me of my grandad! 🙂
Amazing lesson today, great live!
i love when r51 shows up, it’s my favourite part of the live.

Hello from Virginia! Can you wave at us lady payjay?
I am from Virgina too!!!!!
That’s cool plants can count :O
At first, I was skeptical about plants counting. But actually, the Touch-Me-Not plants are pretty smart! It’s really cool! The name also reminds me of Forget-Me-Nots. The Arduino creations were also really cool! Also, was anyone else multitasking by keeping an eye on the battery in the top right corner of the screen constantly going up and down in battery percentage as the perspectives changed? It was a cool detail I noticed!
Hi from Poland
I love the idea of adding the arduino to the store , love the video today.
Maybe it can be a dancing plant!
Dr. Roger Billings, how old is R-51?
I love lives!
PAJET-51 board
