Known as the “immortal jellyfish,” it can revert from adulthood back to a juvenile state through a process called transdifferentiation, effectively resetting its life cycle under stress or injury. While not truly invincible—still vulnerable to predators and disease—this species challenges our understanding of aging and mortality. Its unique biology may hold clues for the future of regenerative medicine and the science of longevity.
