• Scientists have discovered a comb jellyfish, Mnemiopsis leidyi, with an extraordinary ability to revert from its adult form back to its larval stage, defying the natural limits of aging.
• This 'time-traveling' jellyfish challenges our understanding of early animal development and rejuvenation, offering potential insights into life cycle plasticity and regenerative medicine.
• The jellyfish's unique adaptation allows it to survive starvation and physical stress by resetting its biological clock and regaining youthful characteristics.
• While the discovery raises intriguing possibilities, scientists emphasize the need for further research before such 'immortality' can be applied to other species, including humans.
