Life invented it from scratch, over and over, at least ninety separate times. The reason why says something profound about evolution itself. Read more

The Immortal Animal — Why the Turritopsis Jellyfish Refuses to Die
There is an animal alive right now that can reverse its own ageing — not slow it, not pause it, but run it completely backwards. Turritopsis dohrnii is smaller than a fingernail and potentially immortal. The cellular mechanics behind what it does are stranger, and far more significant, than almost anyone realises. Read more
