No. Glass is an insulator and generally microwave safe.
Use a low power setting to avoid burning your milk.
However:
- Glass that has any metal on it or foil labels will cause sparking and should not be used in a microwave.
- Older glass or any crystal that is faceted, or that contains lead will heat up and possibly shatter in the microwave.
- Any regular glass that is heated unevenly too much will crack or shatter.
For example, if you have a glass half full of something quite dense (like gravy), and microwave it for a long time, the lower half of the glass may become much hotter and cause it to shatter.
This is common with glass plates, I can't nuke my inexpensive glass plates for more than 4 minutes without breaking the plate.
If you're unsure about the microwave safety of any glass
1) Use a short amount of time (ie: 30 sec) and watch for any sparking and carefully test the glass to see if it is getting hot.
2) Use a defrost setting which will allow heat to disperse slowly and evenly.
- Finally, any glass that is heated to a great extreme (for hours) will begin to melt, at which point the glass becomes an ionic conductor, and will absorb microwaves and continue melting further, releasing small amounts of super-heated flammable gas that will burn.

Creating plasma in a microwave involves placing a small glass of water in the microwave and heating it until it turns into steam.

Why does the water not boil when you put a spoon inside a pot?
When you put a spoon in a pot of boiling water, the agitation caused by the spoon disrupts the formation of bubbles that are necessary for boiling to occur. Without these bubbles, the water temperature doesn't rise quickly enough to reach the boiling point, preventing it from boiling.
