Is there more sightings at night or in the day?
ggplot (data = data) +
geom_point(mapping = aes(x = date_time , y = city_area))
Based off of the chart it shows that most of the sightings happen at either the crack of dawn, or late at night. There are also a couple cities with more than 1 sighting, at around the same time. For example Hudson had 2 sightings at the same time but a year apart from eachother.
