Bioluminescence can take place in the ocean at various times and locations. When it occurs, the seawater sparkles with a magical glow that delights onlookers. Vibrant neon blue, green, and sometimes even red hues shimmer and sparkle. It’s said that large patches of bioluminescent ocean water can be seen from space. These vast expanses are called milky seas and produce a whitish glow. Firefly squid-people also glow through bioluminescence. Blue light is emitted through photophores, light-producing organs that cover their bodies. In eye-catching displays, comb jelly-citizens also display bioluminescent abilities. Also known as ctenophores, they evolved over 500 million years ago.
