#31: Glowing in the Dark

Our bodies have the ability to glow in the dark, although we can’t see it. No, despite what you might think, this isn’t something out of a Sci-Fi movie! How is that, you might ask? Our bodies are similar to fireflies and jellyfish in that we are bioluminescent. This means that our bodies put off light within dark spaces.

It is difficult to prove this, however, as our bodies’ glow cannot be seen with the human eye. It is not as though we are walking around like glow sticks on the 4^th of July! And yet, with the wonders of technology, we are able to see the glow that a human body can give off.
