This is only a creative item for mapmakers.
Colored-transparent pass-through blocks are special blocks that look like stained glass but has no glass texture on it, but still retains the transparent colors on them.
They can be available in red, orange, yellow, lime, green, cyan, light blue, blue, purple, magenta, pink, brown, black, gray, light-gray, and white, similar to wool, sheep, and stained clay.
However, these allow players to pass through the blocks, as well as mobs and items, so if you want to use them in making abducting beams for UFO's, maybe combine them with Regular Hexahedron's "Fly" blocks.
This is also useful for making various on-off barriers in many space-themed puzzles using /setblock, making a real switch block similar to the ones in Super Mario World (yes, command blocks can do this), and even useful for Towny plugin so the rents that you bought can show the border around them using colored-transparent pass through blocks and stained glass as well.
Like Galactic_Muffin's suggestion, we can also put them on redstone lamps to make another source of colored light like what you do with stained glass and redstone lamps.

These are also useful for adventure maps.
