11/6/2005: "Glowing water" in satellite image



Via Fark comes this NPR item which covers a really wild "earth at night" type image.

In this shot, which is pretty cool to start, you notice a bluish piece of snot at the lower right, off the coast of Africa. That goober is not a mistake by the photographer. It's glowing water. "...about the size of Connecticut, and researchers think billions of glowing bacteria are the source."

Whoa!
