- Min_Min_light abstract "Min Min light is the name given to an unusual light phenomenon that has been reported numerous times in eastern Australia. The lights have been reported from as far south as Brewarrina in western New South Wales, to as far north as Boulia in northern Queensland. The majority of sightings are reported to have occurred in Channel Country.The name "Min Min" derives from the small settlement of Min Min, located between the outback towns of Boulia and Winton, where the light was discovered by a stockman in 1918.Stories about the lights can be found in Aboriginal myths pre-dating western settlement of the region and have since become part of wider Australian folklore. Indigenous Australians hold that the number of sightings has increased alongside the increasing ingression of Europeans into the region. According to folklore, the lights sometimes follow or approached people and have disappeared when fired upon, only to reappear later on.The light's existence as a phenomenon has been confirmed, though there remains debate over its source. Various explanations have been put forward, ranging from optical illusions and piezoelectrics to luminescent animals.It is said that anyone who chases the lights and catches them will never return to tell the tale.".
