Ghostly Orbs, Min Min Lights & Marfa Lights: Natural or UFOs?

For generations, mysterious “ghost lights” have been spotted in various locations around the world, such as the Min Min lights in Australia (which trace their origins back to aboriginal folklore) and the Marfa Lights in Texas. In both cases, they’re described as floating orbs or UFOs that appear in different colors, are roughly a quarter of the size of the moon, and sometimes even follow observers before darting off into the distance. 

These phenomena have spooked many people in both the Australian outback and Texas, with no official explanation as to what they truly are. Are they aliens or UFOs, spirits from another world, or perhaps there’s some paranormal explanation? Alternatively, could there be a rational, natural reason for their appearance in our skies over so many years?

It isn’t only happening in Texas and Australia, though. These “ghost lights” have been seen all over the world—from the will-o’-the-wisps to Naga fireballs in Asia to the Palatine Light phenomenon off of Rhode Island. Some suggest car headlights as an explanation, but that doesn’t account for sightings reported hundreds of years ago.
