IMMORTALITY

Hello,

Immortality

A very impressive creation :

Better known as the "immortal jellyfish", the Dohrnii turritopsis is a small creature that does not die, because it can downright rejuvenate! She returns to her early stages of development and starts her life cycle all over again.

When we know how DNA can be mixed and how China uses widely the right to clone anything .
What could they do with That Jellyfish ...

Found in 1883 , only 100 years later around 1993 we found its possibility of immortality
When the medusa of this species is physically damaged or experiences stress such as starvation, instead of dying it shrinks in on itself, reabsorbing its tentacles and losing the ability to swim. It then settles on the seafloor and over the next 30 hours, this blob develops into a new polyp , meaning the jellyfish's previous life stage ! and after maturing, medusa buds off. This phenomenon has been linkened to that of a butterfly which, instead of dying, would be able to transform back into a caterpillar and then metamorphose into an adult butterfly once again.

The process behind is called transdifferentiation and is extremely rare.

Medusa cells and polyp cells are different, some cells and organs only occur in the polyp, others only in the adult jellyfish. Transdifferentiation reprograms the medusa's specialised cells to become specialised polyp cells, allowing the jellyfish to regrow themselves in an entirely different body plan to the free-swimming jellyfish they had recently been. They can then mature again from there as normal, producing new, genetically identical medusa , a perfect clone .

This life cycle reversal can be repeated, and in perfect conditions, it may be that these jellyfish would never die of old age.

We dont go that deep into the oceans , so imagine what we could find way deeper

In a few years we will all be immortal. We just need to survive the next 3 years.

Interesting you think that , technically , cellularly we could .
Let see 🙂

They just need to mix sone of that eternal jelly DNA into that Messenger RNA (moderna, Pfizer) they are already giving us… why not ?
