Description
Scientists have discovered the Benjamin Button of the marine world that could give us better insight into cancer cures.
The moon jellyfish, which can heal and clone itself.
According to National Geographic, Jinru collected a baby male moon jellyfish from the ocean and raised it to a full grown adult.
After 18 months, it died and he placed its body in a fresh tank of water and simply waited.
Three months later, he got his miracle as he witnessed a small bud-like formation, known as a polyp, rising from the dead corpse.
When the adult jellyfish are injured, they move to the bottom of the ocean floor where they revert back to a younger version of themselves.
In addition to being a working wonder of nature, these incredible creatures could also give scientists insight into cures for cancer.
THis moon jelly fish under neon lights is from Sydney aquarium in Darling harbour.
