While the possibility of an alien race visiting Arizona might be exciting, some of Arizona's more skeptical residents thought aliens might be able to find a better destination after traveling thousands of light years.

"People have drones, drones are everywhere anymore, could just have light on it for some reason, Amazon has been experimenting with drone delivery, Amazon main facility is out that way isn't it?," Liam Alepta wrote.

Others pointed out that if an alien species really did put together an interstellar craft to fly to earth, they could find a better destination than the Durango area.

"Nope. Why would possible alien technology, advanced thousands, possibly millions of years into the future, bother to hang out around the Durango area?...that’d be a huge letdown for me..." Lauren wrote.

The Phoenix Lights were an aerial phenomenon reported by thousands of people on March 13th, 1997. Lights of varying descriptions were reported by people in Phoenix Arizona and Sonora, Mexico. Witnesses say they saw a huge, V-shaped UFO moving across the state, making no sound.

There have been other sightings of the lights, but those occurrences have been explained. A repeat of the lights on February 6th, 2007 was blamed on flares being dropped by a F-16 aircraft training out at Luke Air Force Base. Another incident in 2008 was blamed on a resident that attached flares to helium balloons and releasing them in his backyard.
