Milky seas

This is the first time I've ever heard about it. Milky seas.

Mariners have long told of rare nighttime events in which the ocean glows intensely as far as the eye can see in all directions. Fictionally, such a "milky sea" is encountered by the Nautilus in Jules Verne classic "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea." Scientists don't have a good handle what's going on. But satellite sensors have now provided the first pictures of a milky sea and given new hope to learning more about the elusive events.

Fascinating! Must remember to ask the MasterChief is he's seen this Milky Seas thingie. He might have - the man has travelled all over.



I post the picture for one good reason - at 250KM, you could fit in 6 Singapores. That is large. Sometimes I forget how tiny my country's land mass is.


But it doesn't matter. We're still good.
