Satellite Spots 'Glowing' Ocean

Satellite images captured a large patch of glowing water off the coast of Somalia. The area is about the size of Connecticut, and researchers think billions of glowing bacteria are the source.

I think in a couple of hundred years people will look back on things like this and laugh about what we thought caused them.

Very pretty picture.

Glowing bacteria? Them shits don't glow! Next thing you know, they'll be saying you can use your mouth as a flashlight when you have strep throat.

it seems more likely to me that it's some kind of submerged spacecraft.

I think they should desalinize the water and use it to make beer.

:thumbsup:

it's bioluminescence. pretty interesting stuff. i believe the bacteria have a particular enzyme which enables them to glow. i guess it's like what these guys do:
