[00:00:00]A starfish has no brain, no blood.

[00:00:04]Seawater runs through its body instead.

[00:00:08]And it has survived unchanged for 500 million years.

[00:00:15]The sea star, older than dinosaurs, so successful, evolution left it completely alone for half a billion years.

[00:00:26]When an oyster won't open, a starfish pushes its stomach outside its own body and through the gap.

[00:00:33]It digests the animal alive from the inside, then pulls its stomach back in.

[00:00:40]Sever a starfish arm, that arm grows an entirely new body.

[00:00:46]One starfish silently becomes two.

[00:00:50]The arm has no memory of what it lost.

[00:00:53]It just starts over.

[00:00:56]An eye at the tip of each arm, five eyes, but they only detect light or dark, nothing more.

[00:01:05]That single ability has been enough for 500 million years.

[00:01:12]Hundreds of tube feet move a starfish with no central command.

[00:01:17]They negotiate direction by collective pressure alone.

[00:01:21]No orders, no brain, just agreement and one motion.

[00:01:28]No brain, seawater for blood, a stomach that exits its body, an arm that starts a new life, 500 million years unchanged.

[00:01:43]It never needed to be more than this.
