🔥 This POST is too hot to handle 🔥
I’ve uploaded the new improved version of Bill Nye: Heat.
Plus, every upload now comes with an NGSS-aligned interactive lesson (MS-PS1-4).
You dont have to be a student to enjoy it, let me know your thoughts, Science Rules!

Bill Nye in his blue lab coat and red bow tie points upward beside a science demo with a flask and red balloon. The quote on the image reads: “An ice sculpture has a lot more molecules than a burning match… therefore more heat energy.” – Bill Nye. This image highlights the launch of NGSS-aligned interactive lessons now added to SeriouslyScientific.com, designed for students and curious minds alike to test what they remember.

Appreciate the feedback though, I'll definitely check things on my side as well when I'm back home..

💥Seriously🚀Scientific💥 @seriouslysci.bsky.social · 19d

Also how are you trying to listen? I've noticed that YouTube and Netflix don't sync too well to Bluetooth speakers so well sometimes.

Hmmm ok, I tried from mobile as I'm not home right now and the sound seemed ok. It doesn't mean it's not though..
Sometimes it can take a while for YouTube to finish rendering the higher quality versions, also sometimes you need to manually change the settings to show the higher quality versions.

I’ve also set up interactive lessons, so if you watch this episode be sure to check it out with the orange button underneath the video, enjoy!

Congratulations to Aster Vérité for correctly guessing the legendary Professor Julius Sumner Miller 🎉👏
This was my toughest restoration yet as the source footage was v poor. I’ll redo it when better copy surfaces from this epic 1969 series:

Comparison of Professor Julius Sumner Miller in his 1969 series Dramatic Demonstrations in Physics. The top shows the original poor 480p source, the bottom shows a 2160p restoration by SeriouslyScientific.com. This was the first of 45 episodes in the series. New interactive lessons are now being added alongside these restorations to bring the classic demonstrations back to life for modern learners.

Ahhhh good guess with the hair but no ;)

💥Seriously🚀Scientific💥 @seriouslysci.bsky.social · 19d

I think I have to agree with you there, he does seem to be close on the heels of Avi Loeb at times..

💥Seriously🚀Scientific💥 @seriouslysci.bsky.social · 20d

Yes, I think we should get the ball rolling first though, more roll, more moss as they say..

💥Seriously🚀Scientific💥 @seriouslysci.bsky.social · 20d

I wish it were so but alas the situation wasn't quite what we'd both hoped for..
I did put extra effort trying to improve technique though, so hopefully we can still do him justice, and 🤞 for future developments..

I may have been quiet on here lately but have been very busy behind the scenes… ⛏️⛏️
The new “Mystery Educator” should be arriving tomorrow 👀 "Hair as iconic as the science but remember - you can’t always judge a book by its cover." Can you guess? 🧩

I took a photo of myself with that expression, then I asked AI to make my head explode with crazuy blue hair..

Did anybody else see the eclipse last night? 🛸🌕 👽

Sorry, I just couldn't resist continuing this... Maybe I should change my name to 'Not So Seriously Scientific' for this one 😂😉 (created just for fun).

Yes I had heard that as well but it's not publicly available. Cheers for the nudge though, I'll drop them an e-mail - nothing to lose hey and would be great if they agree 👍

💥Seriously🚀Scientific💥 @seriouslysci.bsky.social · Sep 2

Yes, I hear you for sure. However, the only source footage I can find are old VHS recordings, so the quality is very poor.
I'm experimenting with different methods to try and restore details without making the whole thing look too soft when I get to the upscale stage. Ideally I'd need a DVD source

Yes, there's still an official Mr Wizard Youtube channel which is a relief to know..

💥Seriously🚀Scientific💥 @seriouslysci.bsky.social · Sep 2

I think I've been working my computer too hard lately. I should probably take a break 😉🔥🔥🔥

I hear you, I think they have just as much impact today as they ever did, hence why I started this project to reinvigorate them..

🌋 Bill Nye talks MAGMA not MAGA 🌋
Just finished my new remaster of Bill Nye The Science Guy’s Volcanoes episode with much better video quality.
I improved sound, sharpened visuals, and spent more time fixing the color grading.

👉 SeriouslyScientific.com/Volcanoes

Bill Nye the Science Guy on a volcano in Hawaii holding a rock hammer, wearing his trademark cap and glasses, with a quote on the image: “You know, I’ve made volcanoes like that in my kitchen.” This flyer links to the Volcanoes episode, upscaled and remastered by SeriouslyScientific.com, featuring improved video quality, clearer sound, and carefully fixed color grading. A great resource for classrooms, homeschooling, and science fans.
