Glowing, alien-like sea creature spotted in UK

[Hum]

A bizarre, alien-like sea creature that glowed in a variety of colors showed up Tuesday night on the surface of Bristol harbor in the U.K., leaving eyewitnesses and scientists baffled as what it could be.

People in Bristol, located 116 miles west of London, pulled out iPhones and began taking photos and video as they speculated on the mysterious sighting that looked like some sort of jellyfish or giant squid.

 

The British media didn?t know what to make of it, either, wondering whether it might be an elaborate prank.

The London Evening Standard asked whether this footage ?of a strange glowing creature? is ?proof that the planet is slowly being taken over by aliens??

Then it provided a more serious possibility, saying marine biologists believe the squid-like animal could be a marine salp, which had drifted off course because of the weather.

Another suggestion was a bioluminescent hydrozoan jellyfish, a.k.a. a crystal jelly. They are known to produce flashes of blue light but aren?t often seen in Britain. The Evening Standard said a similar species was spotted off the coast of Scotland in 2009 and is on display at the Macduff Marine Aquarium.
