Have you ever seen a mushroom that glows in the dark?
Meet the Ghost Fungus (Omphalotus nidiformis) — a forest dweller that shines a haunting blue-green light. Its glow comes from luciferin reacting with oxygen using the luciferase enzyme… yet the reason it glows is still completely unknown.
A scientific puzzle wrapped in pure magic. 🌌🍄
