The Phoenix Lights

The visual evidence shown in the film was not terribly convincing, in my opinion; however, the witness testimonies and statistics were very compelling in support of some sort of aircraft that could be explained as extraterrestrial, or some very advanced technology that we possess.

The film points out that if the event were part of a covert military or other governmental operation, it would not take place over highly populated areas. Therefore, it seems reasonable to conclude that the event was not a covert military operation.

It is obviously true that the film is not presented as a balanced expose that provides all sides of the story. But, I was OK with that, because it was not expressed or even implied to be a purely journalistic piece as such. It's a documentary that presents evidence and reasoning for the existence of extraterrestrial crafts, and therefore extraterrestrial beings, most likely.

It left me considering the possibility of extraterrestrial visitations. And why not? Considering the statistical odds of other life forms existing on planets in solar systems in our universe, and that some are likely to have had technology for thousands of years longer than we, it seems possible that we are being visited. And, the evidence reasoned in the film at least should cause us to wonder, and not summarily dismiss it as flares, which seems more like a propaganda story that was fed to the masses than accurate.
