There's just something about fossilised soft-bodied organisms 💯 These are 149.7 million year old Jurassic jellyfish (Rhizostomites admirandus) beached on a surface with ripple marks, from Solnhofen in Germany. On display in the Bürgermeister-Müller-Museum #fossils#FossilFriday#geology ⚒️🧪

A large slab of beige limestone with an undulating surface (ripple marks). There are four fossilised jellyfish which look like concentric circles.

Breathtaking. That's really what something like this can only be described as. Breathtaking.

Honestly, I'm always amazed that they become fossilized. I know it's just personal incredulity, but I can never quite grasp how something so delicate can survive the process. Quite amazing for sure!
