A tiny prosthetic allows jellyfish to swim much faster and more efficiently.

An engineer at the University of Colorado Boulder has developed a system to control the movement of jellyfish to employ them to explore and study the ocean.

That's why researchers at the University of Colorado at Boulder (CU Boulder) have built "cyborg" jellyfish equipped with tiny ...

Aside from the occasional sting, jellyfish aren't particularly formidable members of the oceanic community. But researchers say that implanting microcontrollers into live jellyfish could turn them ...

Ginger Zee journeys to Palau to swim in a lake filled to the brim with 20 million jellyfish.

Turns out jellyfish can swim — they’re just really slow Researchers find that, rather than drifting aimlessly, jellyfish in the Mediterranean are trying to get somewhere — usually away from beaches.

While the electrical jolts made jellyfish swim about three times faster than the usual pace, they also used less energy to reach that speed, scientists said.

Scientists make jellyfish swim faster to prepare for deep-sea exploration They developed a prosthetic that uses electrical impulses to give jellyfish a boost.

The Canadian Rocky Mountains offer more than scenic views: The mountains have been hiding fossils of an ancient jellyfish species. Researchers analyzed 182 fossils that were found in the middle ...

VISITORS have been warned not to enter the water after some 100 stinging jellyfish were spotted in a lake in Co Cork ...

Locomotion through the seas can be arduous. Water is more viscous than air, so underwater creatures must overcome strong frictional resistance as they swim. To make things more difficult, liquid wa… ...
