Context: Recently, Researchers have spotted a giant alien creature in the Australian coast that has bamboozled the authorities. The strange object in the ocean is very massive in size and appears like UFO spaceship.

• A giant, strangely ribbon-like looking siphonophore, Apolemia, was found near the expense of Australia by a team of international scientists from local institutes, including Western Australia Gallery, Schmidt Ocean Institute as well as Scripps Organization of Oceanography. 
• The Ningaloo Canyons Exploration was exploring the adjacent sea with an aid of finder tools and ROVs when they spotted a possibly “biggest ever before taped” sampling in a strange UFO-like kind.

About Siphonophores

• They are marine organisms which are essentially gelatinous strings that can grow to 100 feet long.
• They look like giant strings made up of small varieties called zooids that join together in large swarms to function as one giant animal. 
• They usually feed upon fish or crustaceans, with each person in the body acting like a body organ serving its very own function.
• It looks like the giant might have been consisted of hundreds or thousands or even numerous zooids, where the nutrients from any captured victim were passed along its huge body along a stem shared by all.
• Siphonophores can resemble one big private aquatic microorganism to some, however as a matter of fact, they are made up of little private bodies comprising one huge swarm, with each one serving its own gastrointestinal, hunting or reproductive objectives.

Key Findings

• Siphonophores feed on tiny crustaceans, such as copepods, fish, and even other siphonophores. 
• Apolemia is a genus of the siphonophore. The Apolemia siphonophore featured in the video is addressed as possibly the “largest-ever recorded” specimen. 
• The 175 species of siphonophores that make up Siphonophorae are each, in actuality, made up of an enormous colony of “zooids,” which themselves are individual animals. 
• These zooids, or “drones,” as they’re sometimes called, work together as a massive team to keep any given siphonophore alive and moving. 
• And while all of a siphonophore’s zooids share identical DNA, they still mutate to perform very different functions. 
• Like any other animal, siphonophores start off with a single fertilized egg. And this egg develops into a small larva, and at some point this larva will develop its first tentacle, and it has a mouth opening by then.
• Siphonophores have along the stem one long axon, which probably propagates signals from one end of the colony to the other. 
• But how they coordinate all this and how the whole colony appears to act as an animal, it's really not well understood.
