On The Cold Dark Ocean Floor I Asked To Come Inside And the Glow Replied

File this in the "scary if I saw it" category:

"Mystery Ocean Glow confirmed in satellite photos.
The newly released images show a vast region of the Indian Ocean, about the size of Connecticut, glowing three nights in a row. The luminescence was also spotted from a ship in the area." (livescience.com)

Okay, so it's probably a bunch of glow in the dark bacteria or something, nothing to be afraid of.... right? Um, so what happens when we spot it next time and it's the size of Florida?
