There are folk oral stories about the origin of those strange light balls. Many people believe that the ball of light is the ghost of an Apache chief, who died in that wild field.

This mysterious phenomenon has attracted the attention of many people including scientists. They went into the investigation and explained the origin of these strange light spheres.

According to Karl Stephan, one of the mysterious explanatory scientists said: " The mysterious bright spheres at the Marfa that people still see every night are just as big as a human's fist. like a star, maybe something yellow and white and moving very slowly. "

The empty field outside the town of Marfa, where strange bright spheres appear, is surrounded by golden sand desert spread out with eyes of cacti and dry grass clusters, in the distance is the fat Chinati mountain. blur in the heat makes the scene become gloomy.

Karl Stephan said, "It turns out that the strange light sphere is a car headlight from Highway 67, about 25 to 30 kilometers south of the town of Mafa ."

Stephan and some of his colleagues using ultraviolet and infrared-sensitive spectroscopes emitted the existence of a special point in the atmosphere of the moor in Marfa. It is this special thing that redirects the light of the car headlights from the other highways, causing that light to pass nearly 30 km through the vast desert.

And when the light reached the human eye, they were not like the headlights but became white light balloons floating in the air. The temperature, humidity and density of the atmosphere here made the headlights appear shimmering and mysterious. This research report was published in the Solar and Physical Physics Journal on Earth in 2011.

According to researcher Stephan: "When the desert temperature rises, the air on the ground warms up and rises high when it is dark. This makes us feel like we see light through a ripple prism. waves ".

Thus, we have learned that the origin of these strange light spheres is the car headlights that are bent by the air. But it was found that there were cases where the spheres of light danced in the air or even disappeared suddenly, not coinciding with the description of the floodlights. There is currently no explanation for these bizarre spheres.

Stephan Jim Bunnell, a researcher and colleague not only witnessed it, but even took pictures of these mysterious orbs. And he realized that the strange structure inside this light was not from the headlights.

Although the scientists entered and explained, the ball of light in Marfa, Texas is still unanswered unknowns.
