Euplokamis-GOM-99b-a776 Marine scientists have discovered a new species of jellyfish near the waters of Tasmania, which has a rainbow glow.The jellyfish does not emit its own light, as bioluminescent creatures do.Rather, its rainbow glow emanates from light reflecting off the creatures cilia, small hair-like projections that beat simultaneously to move the jellyfish through the water.The jelly is relatively large 5 inches (13 centimeters) long
