all oceans on Earth may have originally been green.

In 2024, a tempest in the Pacific Ocean probably generated a rogue wave measuring 115 feet in height. Information pertaining to the wave was gathered from satellites that track the ocean’s movements. By examining the ocean’s surface from outer space, satellites chart wave heights over extensive regions. This transformation has shifted rogue waves from mere sailor tales after events to quantifiable phenomena that can be analyzed, measured, and recorded. This enormous wave highlights that such megawaves can arise even in the absence of storm conditions, offering insight into the unpredictable nature of navigating the ocean.
