I find it amazing that life appears to be simply one possible state of matter. Jellyfish have no brains (and therefore no consciousness that we can tell), and no hearts. They do not even have a nervous system, just rudimentary nerves on the end of their tentacles. They are basically just eating and swimming machines. There are many animals in the ocean like this, corals for instance. And what about Virus's? They aren't even technically alive, yet they are not dead matter either, like a lump of coal.
Life is so amazing and so diverse, just right here on this time planet.
