If scientists are correct, jellyfish may hold the key to immortality.
That’s the premise of a New York Times Magazine article that examines a species of jellyfish (appropriately) nicknamed the “immortal jellyfish.”
Known officially as Turritopsis nutricula (and sometimes as Turritopsis dohrnii), the minute creature has the ability to transform its cells back into a youthful state. As National Geographic puts it, the jellyfish transforms “into a blob-like cyst” that grows into a polyp colony — the first stage of life.

A supermassive black hole discovered by University of Texas researchers ranks among the largest ever observed.
The enormous black hole is located in NGC 1277, a small, lenticular galaxy 250 million light years from Earth in the constellation Perseus, Space.com reports.
The black hole’s event horizon — the “point of no return” within which nothing can escape — has a diameter 11 times greater than Neptune’s orbit around the Sun, according to a written statement issued by the university’s McDonald Observatory in Austin.

NASA is well-known for the awesome space photos snapped by its spacecraft and astronauts—in fact, the administration has an entire website devoted just to space imagery. But it’s not the only space agency known for spectacular photos of the cosmos.
The European Space Agency (ESA), an organization comprised of 20 member states, has collected more than its share of eye-popping multimedia. From the Cassini-Huygens probe’s austere photos of Saturn and its moons to Envisat’s visions of our own planet, images from ESA spacecraft span the whole wondrous range of space science.

An Indianapolis family says their pet dog fended off would-be kidnappers who tried to steal their baby.
On Tuesday morning, a man and a woman tried to enter Nayeli Garzon-Jimenez’s home while she was talking to her husband on the phone, according to WISH TV.
When she told him what was happening, Adolfo Angeles-Morales told his wife to check the door and identify the intruders.

Atari’s celebrating 40 years of arcade classic Pong today by releasing … another version of Pong. Pong World is being dubbed “the first-ever official new Pong game on iOS” (despite our search of the App Store dictating the contrary), but more importantly, it’s totally free and it’s already available on the iOS App Store (see gameplay below the break). The iPhone / iPad / iPod Touch game started life as one of many entries in Atari’s “Pong Indie Developer Challenge,” which pitted devs against each other for $50K and lead representation on the big four-zero celebration.

Watch game developer Kevin Slavin’s TEDTalk above and then explore his thoughts in this companion essay.
Back at TEDGlobal, the most difficult aspect of preparation was the editing process, chipping away at three hours of material to cut it down into 14 live minutes.
Of all the darlings that were killed, the ones I missed most were a few minutes about genetic algorithms. Like everything I presented, it’s a subject for which I have interest and passion, not training or expertise. It’s going to seem very dull. But stay with me for a few of the missing minutes.

White teeth are seen as attractive and a sign of good health. While this seems to be a valid conjecture, it just isn’t that simple. White teeth can be riddled with unseen cavities or weak with calcium loss. This is especially true for teeth that have been treated with conventional whiteners. Most such whiteners bleach teeth white with concentrated hydrogen peroxide, which is proven to severely damage teeth over time. It should come as no surprise however, as this method kills the microorganisms that resist plaque while weakening the structure of the teeth. Even some herbal treatments for whiter teeth can damage them in the long term, such as lemon juice and other acids that strip away the protective tooth enamel. The unexpected remedy: Turmeric.

With his truly spectacular optical illusions, Brusspup is more of a magician than an artist — it’s all about the reveal.
In his latest video, the Youtube user with the tagline “Illusions and Science” forgoes his usual animated illusions for 3D drawings of household items.
From a certain angle, the Rubik’s Cube, blue roll of tape and a sneaker appear to be real. But when Brusspup turns the paper, the items that appear to be three-dimensional turn out to be meticulously crafted anamorphic art.

By the looks of their home, Tony and Christine Clark are raising two rambunctious 7-year-old boys. Model train tracks and Monopoly pieces are scattered on tables and cartoons flicker on the TV set.
But the Clarks’ two sons are grown men who share only the same interests and emotional fluctuations of little boys. Like the character portrayed by Brad Pitt in the 2008 film “The Curious Case of Benjamin Buttons,” Matthew, 39, and Michael, 42, are aging backwards.
