  1. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🪼🌊 Lion’s mane #jellyfish, the world’s largest jellyfish species, have been appearing in unusually high numbers off #CapeCod since May 2026.

    Their bells can reach a meter across with tentacles over 30 m long, and they deliver painful stings. Experts suggest #water temperatures and #food availability may be driving the bloom.

  10. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🪸💨 University of #Chicago researchers watched dime-sized Clytia hemisphaerica #jellyfish close wounds in minutes.

    Lamellipodia crawl across tissue, then an actomyosin cable cinches like a purse string. The simplified model could eventually inform mammalian regenerative #medicine.

  12. Apparently, this is a Lion’s Mane jellyfish, the largest known jellyfish species, and dangerous (while they don’t kill you, cause painful stings, I just read). 😳😅 I saw a few floating in the shallows, and several washed up on the beach.

    Despite the chilly water temperature at 18°C, I enjoyed swimming, fortunately unscathed. Ignorance is such a bliss. 😂

  16. Problem: the pockets have ripped out on your lab coat.

    Me (boring, lazy): Safety pins!

    My student (creative, motivated): Sew it up and add awesome embroidery!

  18. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🐋🦴 Chinese scientists piloting the submersible Fendouzhe in the southeast #IndianOcean found fossil sites spanning 1,200 km at depths up to 7,000 m.

    The #bones belong mostly to beaked #whales, with the oldest dating back 5.3 million years. Living #jellyfish, brittle stars, and bone-boring #worms still call these ancient carcasses home, allowing whale fall to serve as a #deepsea #ecosystem.
