My only question about this is why do they have lights? A superior intelligence able to cross the universe shouldn't need landing lights on their craft. It's not like anything is going to run into it.

How do you know they are landing lights, position lights or anti-collision lights? That is what we perceive them to be because that is what our human minds tend to do, make sense of something we know nothing about. What if these lights are an energy output of their propulsion system?

By the way what you call "landing lights" which is incorrect in your understanding as landing lights are primarily used, you guessed it "upon landing" and are usually affixed to the landing gear. You may have meant position lights....but anyway. You do realize that even our modern-day fighters do not have to fly constantly with their position and anti-collision lights on right? Do you think we send our fighter jets into hostile territory with lights aglow??

Whatever these lights are and why they are visible is probably not by mistake.
