Anyone Could Have Thought of That
In this episode of Science Live, Dr. Roger Billings and co-host Pajet Monet explore the art and science of inventioneering — and what it really takes to change the world. Drawing inspiration from Thomas Edison’s 1,000+ patents, Dr. Billings breaks down the inventioneering mindset: why the best inventions start with a genuine need, how to evaluate an idea before you invest in it, and why the hardest part of any breakthrough is believing it’s possible in the first place.
The episode also features Acellus News highlights, including student achievements in the Lumair Scholars Essay Award and Acellus Academy’s recognition as a top 10 US high school. Dr. John takes viewers on a deep-sea dive into a recent research mission off the coast of Brazil, where scientists discovered 31 new species using cutting-edge laser imaging and 3D camera technology. And Tobias traces the surprisingly chaotic history of temperature measurement — from melting butter and cow body heat to the rival scales of Celsius and Fahrenheit.
Plus, R51 makes his case for having invented bubblegum.

i love science live
I liked learning about Edison’s approach to inventing and how he focused on finding real problems to solve. It showed that a simple idea can become something important when you actually work on it.
The focus on having a dedicated team to be an inventioneer I understand now is of great importance. Particularly when you are looking to make something that has never been.
Wow! Facts I did not know, great episode!
These videos are amazing. Love from North Carolina!

My name is Amina, and I want to be known for changing the world of show production and technology! I hope to create an app, kind of like Netflix, where you can stream shows made by indie studios. I am actually working on my own show right now, and I will finish the script by the time I graduate!
