I once did a class project on Texas towns with funny names. I think they sent me a button or bumper sticker or somethin.


But yeah, Marfa lights = atmospherics/mirage effects on the lights of cars on Hwy 67.

There was a show on the travel channel where they had "alien investigators" checking the lights out. The theory they had was that they certainly couldn't be planes, since planes have strobe lights but not red and green and white lights. All of this was said while the camera was obviously looking at a plane flying overhead at night.
