The Jellyfish with a Broad Reach

About this episode

Unlike most jellyfish, the velella has an asymmetrical body with a uniquely angled S-shaped sail that allows it to “sail” up to 60° off the wind direction, much like a skilled sailor. Velellas can even adjust their sailing angle by moving their tentacles. Even scientists who deny a Creator acknowledge this intricate functionality.
