“No line of horizon was visible; the dead white colour of the water close to the ship as it increased in distance from her very gradually brightened until, where I supposed the horizon to be, it assumed a silvery aspect, which increasing as it ascended became brilliant and dazzling towards the zenith, obscuring the stars and clouds which had before this visitation been distinctly visible.”
A similar tale unfolds over the course of dozens of collected entries. Some mariners threw fireballs into the ocean to literally test the waters, and many crews reported that tiny “animalcules” were seen under microscopes in buckets drawn up from the milky seas.

ResearchBuzz: FirehoseColorado State University: What are milky seas? Centuries-old ship logs, diaries may help solve this maritime mystery. “Milky seas can often cover hundreds of miles. But they are also currently impossible to predict — therefore, nearly impossible to study. That’s why [Justin] Hudson has created a global database of milky sea events based on 400 years of historical documents, including […]

"For generations, sailors around the globe have reported a mysterious phenomenon: Vast areas of the ocean glow steadily at night, sometimes for months on end. The light is bright enough to read by... it likely comes from activity of Vibrio harveyi #bacteria."
With new database, researchers may be able to predict rare 'milky seas' bioluminescent event
For generations, sailors around the globe have reported a mysterious phenomenon: Vast areas of the ocean glow steadily at night, sometimes for months on end. The light is bright enough to read by and is oddly similar to the green and white aura cast by glow-in-the-dark stars that have decorated children's rooms. Stretching over ocean space as broad as 100,000 square kilometers, the light can, at times, even be seen from space.
