"Maybe all life on earth is one big colonial organism, a siphonophore. We just haven’t learned yet how to work together as one… " good point / i suspect that is exactly right / one of my favorite books 'Universe in Creation' argues that the universe was designed from inception to bring forth life / that would make the whole universe one big colonial organism
I balked at first at "creation" and design, so I looked the book up: "Gould helps us see the universe as the master of its own creation", that makes total sense to me, and so, yes, the whole universe is one big organism... Wow, what a thought.
the pics are very cool!
Yes, amazing creatures... I hope you followed the link to the Smithsonian page -- mindblowing!
re: gaia theory. maybe not just life ON earth, but the earth from core to thermosphere.
Always loved James Lovelock. And maybe life in the whole universe.

I liked your last paragraph! THX as always, for the stunning photos.
Yes, I should write an article about the last paragraph... Our egos are in the way big time.
