Have you noticed flights have two different coloured lights on its two wings: Red and Green?
Do you know the reason?
These are called Position/Navigation Lights.
Red is always on the left wing tip, green on the right, each beaming two rays at 110 degrees.
These lights are used to reduce the collision, mostly during night time. At night time, the flight is not clearly visible, except the colourful light, which indicates, which direction flight is going, whether it is coming towards, or have crossed you.
Example: if pilot sees green colour on Left, it mean the flight is coming towards, and has crossed if green light is on Right side.
