14 DAY TRIAL // Some (self-proclaimed) really lucky folks in this world like to go around telling people that their sweetheart's eyes are very much like the ocean.
Well, if they are anything like in the picture above, i.e. blue, green and yellow all over, then I strongly recommend they stop talking nonsense and rush their sweetheart to the emergency room.
Not to beat about the bush, the picture above was taken by NASA's Aqua satellite, and it shows part of Namibia's coastline and the ocean adjacent to it.
The picture was taken with the help of the satellite's Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MODIS, for short), and it dates back to April 10. However, it has just recently been shared with public.
Specialists say that, all things considered, the yellow swirls captured in this picture are due to sulfite released by deep-sea bacteria, Live Science informs.
As far as the green swirls further out at sea are concerned, researchers suspect that they have formed due to the presence of phytoplankton blooms in the area, the same source details.
For those unaware, phytoplankton is basically made of single-celled plant-like organisms that convert sunlight into energy in order to survive, and whose growth has been shown to be influenced by winds and currents.
