At night navigation lights can tell you if the other vessel is less than 50 meters in length or greater. How greater is really hard to tell sometimes.
Lights can also tell you general heading and target angle of the other vessel.
Why the Fitzgerald didn't see it in time to take action and avoid collision baffles me to no end.
