Just because life may be common does not mean advanced life would come here to abduct people. There aren't many good, logical reasons a species which can traverse the enormous distances between the stars would have to abduct people from one small part of North Carolina.
Just curious...what led you to make the statement about "one small part of North Carolina"?
The OP stated that these lights happen all over the world, and in some cases (as with the NC variety) have been documented for centuries.
You're making the rather dubious argument that in order for the NC phenomenon to be valid it would require space travelers to have come all this way just to hang out in some little town in NC, am I reading that correctly?
And why, of all the places on Earth, would they bother with said little town in NC, right? A derisive statement, yeah?
North Carolina, just like every other place on the planet, is far older than its name. Who is to say that centuries ago it wasn't the most happening place in the galaxy? Who is to say that it doesn't contain something special that draws an advanced race of beings back to it time and time again that is simply not within our capacity to grasp the meaning or usefulness of?
If a space-faring race travels light years to arrive here, they do it for a reason...a resource, some type of tactical advantage, etc.
They aren't going to care that it is just some little area in NC versus a large city or well-known site...if we have something they need, they'll take it, geographical location not withstanding. In fact, the location could actually be optimal for them because of its relative obscurity...hiding in plain sight and no one the wiser save for those loony "UFO people"...I mean come on, no one listens to them anyway...right? Food for thought.

Hi and thanks for stopping by ats!
Thought I had posted a question yesterday.. Can't seem to find it and short on time so I'm gonna go ahead and repost it, so many questions anyways
So I have this very unsetteling picture taken by coincidence while using my ipad (sadly not my camera) I belive the picture is thrown from the pad, too creapy but I've kept an unedited (I belive so at least Rough time in my life atm so a lil hard with the memory atm) but it should be OK if anyone wants to check for hoaxes etc. Need a hand how to get it online safe n sound. Do't want to upload it from my home and I will DEFENETLY not take critisism on here
Not at all. Again, simple logic would lead us to a different conclusion.
Isn't it more reasonable that if extraterrestrial aliens spent the enormous amounts of energy it takes to get here even from Alpha Centauri, our nearest star system, that they would drop in on the U.N. or people who actually have the job of learning how we might one day communicate with aliens and convey that information to the greater world?
If the lights WERE alien in nature our question SHOULD be "What is in North Carolina which is attracting them?"

As far as the lights being "alien" in origin or just some type of energy anomaly, of course other explanations are entirely possible. Anything is possible. I've never been out there and seen those lights, but I've seen lights right here where I live; hovering, shooting up into the air after plummeting almost to the ground, hurtling across the sky like a skipping stone...doing things that no aircraft are capable of doing, completely silent...and they are not only far too large to be some random ball of energy but also intelligently moving, piloted by someone. If those lights are anything like what we see here, they are most definitely not an energy anomaly...anyone who has seen what I'm talking about can tell immediately that this is something deliberate and intelligent. They like to show off, and they know you're watching them too.

Faith? Is UFOlogy as in the study of UFOs, a science or is it a religion?
Science does not require faith, nor belief. It requires verifiable data and analysis.

Hey Matty!
Congratulation on making this film, it looks really good!
I'm a filmmaker, and I'd like to know how you managed to get financing to make your movie.
Lawrence Bender is a pretty big name and I'd be interested how you got to pitch them something.
What was the range of the budget for the film?
Thanks

Why haven't Extraterrestrials sat down in front of me, and discussed with me about gravito-vibratic technology? I mean, I feel like they don't care or something? All their engines are really inefficient and take so much energy to operate because they are rotating matter, or utilizing quasi-crystals to manipulate space and there is so much more efficient ways-I just don't understand why they don't speak with us? They probe our butts, but not our brains, seems kind of off right?
Are extraterrestrials using nanotechnology EEG readers with automatic radio emitters transmitting our thoughts?
Cause then I can use my thoughts to manipulate their technology.
Do extraterrestrials remotely view our planet like we are starting to remotely view primal cultures in the amazon to prevent them from being destroyed through direct contact?
How many species of extraterrestrials are there?
How many species of extraterrestrials are merely branches of past human cultures that manipulated their genetics through sonication and transfection of human embryos?
When are extraterrestrials going to speak with us? I would love to ask them questions on various subjects to see their knowledge base and culture? Do extraterrestrials have a specific culture similiar to human with egotistical assholes wanting to control others?
How many extraterrestrial species have established bases on Earth?
How many extraterrestrial species want to help humans progress and transform?
How many extraterrestrial species are involved in abductions meant to study human genetics and epigenetics?
How many extraterrestrial species come from other galaxies?
How many extraterrestrial species come from this galaxy(milky way)?
How many extraterrestrial species trade with each other?
Is there a universal language that is used to communicate with all extraterrestrial species?
Is there universal rights recognized by all extraterrestrial species?
Do extraterrestrials have some form of dogma, religion, ideology, regimented structure in their daily habits?

These lights are they all in one direction like little spots or is it a blue light that is every where as far as the eyes can see and a bit like lightning without the flash or epicenter and lasts much longer before slowly diming away ?
I ask because I have seen such an event and put it down to the military.

Do't want to upload it from my home and I will DEFENETLY not take critisism on here as a hoaxer, my life is just too rough at the moment. This is a true picture taken here... A lot of light that comes in throuhg my window but the circumstances around the pic are just mindblowing.. at least for me who took it.
This picture was taken while watching the documentary about Orson Wells radio show in US (War of the worlds?) while practicing my pad on my new furnishing to show a friend of mine who does homestyling for a living, needed some critisism on the picutre but after going through my pics it made a hard turn directly here to ats
Please help me out what to do! I really would like to get one decent gray pic online at least.
