The Lights of Marfa and Paulding: Is Seeing Believing?

by Kevin Candela


So what are we talking about when it comes to light phenomena?

They seem to be exclusively nocturnal, at least to the extent that no one’s come forth yet saying, “Hey, I used full spectrum goggles on the Marfa/Paulding Light(s) and it/they show up in daylight too!” They appear at a distance, and for some reason we don’t see or hear about many attempts to zoom in on them with, say, a drone (if not in fact on foot or by vehicle) so as to get a better look. Curious, really—you’d think someone would have given that a shot by now.
