Alien Watching in Marfa, TX
Marfa, TX is the home of some mysterious apparitions at night. They have appeared there, seemingly at random, for over one hundred years. The lights can be seen at night in different colors and movements. Some speculate that they are the result of government experiments, but they have been there since before any government experiments started. Others think that it might be because of alien activity, but there isn’t any proof of that either, but scientific research has not shown a reason for the lights. Regardless, you can road trip to Marfa for a few days to see them. They are a great night-time vacation activity to get into. Plus, Marfa is near Big Bend National Park, which is a great daytime activity.
