Today we have discovered exoplanets thousands of light years away from earth. We have explored the depths of the ocean and conquered the highest peaks. We study Quantum Physics and build quantum computers but for some reason we still don’t know about these strange lights in the night sky.
There are lights that regularly appear near the town of Marfa in West Texas, they are about the size of basketballs, suddenly appearing out of nowhere at night . The existence of these lights is not a legend but a fact that has been confirmed by scientists. But they still need to explain its nature.
Bright spots frequently appear near the town of Marfa in West Texas. (Illustration).
A local shepherd first noticed the Marfa flare in 1883. At first he thought it was a fire created by natives. However, upon inspection, there was no trace of fire in the area where the light flew above.
Then in the 40s, pilots of the nearest Midland airport saw the Marfa light. They also wanted to find out the secret of this phenomenon but could not find anything. More and more people are seeing these strange lights, many of them are sure that the lights are some ships of extraterrestrial civilizations, others think they are wandering spirits. ladder.
Scientists say it could be an optical illusion that occurs when a layer of cold air overlaps a layer of warm air; you can observe a similar visual effect in the ocean when you see a ship. is floating in the air above the horizon.
Aerospace engineer James Ban explains the nature of the Marfa flares as originating from unusual electrical charges . Solid substances such as minerals and various crystals generate electricity under pressure. And this underground energy burst out in the form of multicolored light but scientists could not prove their theory. To this day, the Marfa lights remain a mystery.
