UFO lights and colors

Moreover, humans have constructed lighting to mimic what they see as light (and its color). Lamps and creative lighting come from the human view of Earth's nature. UFO ETs would not create lighting or color as that of Earth, if they have light at all (or need it to land their craft as one wag put it in a comment).
In my posting a few days ago where I mentioned the Belgian
Triangle Wave, I got a foolish comment that said colors and light are
universal; that is both are the same throughout the Universe.
This came about because I’ve taken the view, for some time,
that if UFOs are from an alien (extraterrestrial) species, symbols or writ- ing
on them would not be like that of Earth and any lighting (and the colors of
those lights) would surely differ from Earth’s for a number of reasons.
An alien species would not develop perceptors – eyes and
brain – that mimics those of humans, and the spectra of color would likely be
different because of various factors of their abode (planet) which would surely
be unlike Earth’s.
Thus, for me, the red and white lights on the supposed bona
fide Triangle craft photographed during the Belgian wave, because it has
red and white lights, tells me the thing was Earth-made – an advanced aircraft
– and not an out-of-character flying saucer or UFO, as normally reported or
seen.
Here are supporting views, from various sources explaining
the structure, appearance, and variety of circumstances that create light and
color in planets close by, Mars and Jupiter, and certainly for planets farther away
in the galaxy or Universe from which some think ETs derive:
“Visible light constitutes only one of many types of
electromagnetic radiation emitted from the sun and other stars. Scientists
differentiate the various types of radiant energy from the sun within the
electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic spectrum is the range of all
possible frequencies of radiation (Figure 2). The difference between
wavelengths relates to the amount of energy carried by them.
Each type of electromagnetic radiation travels at a
particular wavelength. The longer the wavelength (or the more stretched out it
appears in the diagram), the less energy is carried. Short, tight waves carry
the most energy. This may seem illogical, but think of it in terms of a piece
of moving a heavy rope. It takes little effort by a person to move a rope in long, wide waves. To make a rope move in short,
tight waves, a person would need to apply significantly more energy.
Infrared and optical astronomers generally use wavelength.
Infrared astronomers use microns (millionths of a meter) for wavelengths, so
their part of the EM spectrum falls in the range of 1 to 100 microns. Optical astronomers use both
angstroms (0.00000001 cm, or 10-8 cm) and nanometers (0.0000001 cm, or 10-7
cm). Using nanometers, violet, blue, green, yellow, orange, and red light have
wavelengths between 400 and 700 nanometers. (This range is just a tiny part of
the entire EM spectrum, so the light our eyes can see is just a little fraction
of all the EM radiation around us.)
The wavelengths of ultraviolet, X-ray, and gamma-ray regions
of the EM spectrum are very small. Instead of using wavelengths, astronomers
that study these portions of the EM spectrum usually refer to these photons by
their energies, measured in electron volts (eV). Ultraviolet radiation falls in
the range from a few electron volts to about 100 eV. X-ray photons have energies in the range 100 eV to 100,000 eV
(or 100 keV). Gamma-rays then are all the photons with energies greater than
100 keV.”
“There's no doubt about it, observationally. The sky of Mars
is both red and bright, in contrast to what you'd naively expect from, say, an
equivalently thinner, sparser version of Earth's atmosphere. This is the
subject of a number of conspiracy-minded claims out there, as what we've
actually seen from the Martian surface is incredibly different from what we
expected before we ever went there.”
“We didn't even need to land on Mars to see this; as NASA's
Viking missions approached Mars way back in the early 1970s, it got an up-close
glimpse of Mars' atmosphere from space. The red glow of Mars was clearly
visible from tens of thousands of miles away, and blocked much more light than
if there were no dust on Mars. They've even been able to deduce the mineralogy
of Martian dust from the absorptive effects that appear in its atmosphere. To
summarize:
Mars' clouds are made of tiny ice particulates, Mars is much
dustier than planet Earth, the dust is red in color, preferentially absorbing blue
light, but the red is primarily reflected away along the Sun's line-of-sight,
causing the sky to be red, the sky near the Sun to be blue, clouds to be blue,
distant mountains to appear dim/obscured, and the clouds to be blue.”
Moreover, humans have constructed lighting to mimic what they see as light (and its color). Lamps and creative lighting come from the human view of Earth's nature. UFO ETs would not create lighting or color as that of Earth, if they have light at all (or need it to land their craft as one wag put it in a comment).
An alien species might be blind, or color blind or perceive
no color at all, but if they use lights as we do on Earth and for their
interplanetary spacecraft, those lights and their coloring would not look the
same as those which appear on our airplanes. Not at all.
