Colombia’s UFO Airport: investigating the lights

A field team investigates the lights reported around La Peña de Juaica and Majuy Hill in Colombia, a region locals call the “UFO Airport.” The film describes a centuries-old tradition of moving lights and the Muisca association of the sacred mountain with La Puerta de los Dioses, or the Door of the Gods. In local legend, the lights return around Holy Week, especially on Good Friday.

The team compares footage of the lights from an earlier episode with flashlights shone on the mountain to test the idea that hikers are responsible. On Good Friday, they use drones and night-vision equipment to search around the peaks of Juaica and Majuy. The film presents a field investigation into the reports and possible explanations, without establishing what causes the lights.
