According to several scientific investigations of jellyfish nutricula Turritopsis is the only animal that can be immortal. Indeed, this jellyfish is able to go back in time from one phase of life advanced to a stage of early life.

The nutricula of Turritopsis are a species of jellyfish very specific. Indeed, they may be the only animals in the world have discovered the secret of youth and eternal life, a real breakthrough in the scientific world. This jellyfish would be able to rejuvenate after a certain stage of life expired, not giving any limit to their lifespan. The scientific explanation and the hydroid jellyfish is the only animal in the world that can reverse the aging back in time and recover its entire structure to return to the state of polyp, that is to say when its first phase of life.

This process is explained in particular by the phenomenon of trans-differentiation, which means a type of cell is transformed into another cell type. Only a few animals in the world can cause trans-differentiation, but it is still limited, as the salamander, for example, that can remake "push" its tail when it loses. The jellyfish nutricula of Turritopsis has the particularity to regenerate its entire body, and this so infinite. Several research teams and scientists are carefully studying this species to determine how it is possible to reproduce the process of aging / rejuvenation.

Often evolve into deep waters, and since they can not die or not, these jellyfish are currently developing their presence in waters around the world, not only in the Caribbean waters where they were originally. And Dr. Maria Miglietta Institute Smithsonian Tropical Marine explains: "We bear witness to a silent invasion world.
