Nouméa 1973, mysterious lights over the ocean

Summary

In 1973, a child and his parents observed multicolored lights above the Magenta bay in Nouméa. The lights were stationary over the sea and initially thought to be related to an aircraft. However, when passing near the airport, they discovered it was completely closed. The next day, an investigation revealed no aircraft or helicopter activity on the entire island. The witness mentioned that others had also seen something similar that night, but no further details were gathered about this phenomenon. The case remains unexplained due to the lack of additional information.
