Glowing Sea

The "milk sea" in a composite satellite image, and the region of the Indian Ocean off the coast of Somalia where it was spotted by the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program. These pictures were taken recently to show that portions of the ocean glow for no apparent reason.

wow. That's weird. Notice how the bottom bit looks like a tail, but I very much doubt that there is something that big, plus the fact it doesn't move kinda destroys my little theory.

but usually those bacteria are in great deepths of the sea... the fishes on top really dont need to be that shiny because they get light from the sun... I would think its some sort of huge crystals that have been collected there for years.. or artificially done.
