We went there a few years ago, while we were in Fort Davis, to see the Marfa Lights. We did see the lights - it's a real thing! But at the same time, we also saw a Space X launch, including seeing the flash of the 1st stage separation. It was an amazingly cool experience.
While waiting for sunset, we also took a drive out of town to the southwest toward Mexico. It started as a nice paved road, but after an hour or so the pavement disappeared. A bit later, we started meandering down the side of a mountain, on loose shale, only one lane wide and nowhere to turn around. The views were amazing, but it seemed that was a clear sign that it was time to turn back.

They're car headlights, which are indeed a real thing.
