One night In 1985 the people on the Rainbow Warrior were having a party. This was one of their last celebrations before they headed up to Mururoa in French Polynesia to protest against France's nuclear testing. As they partied not far away in Mechanics Bay some people noticed some suspicious activity. Two men set off in a zodiac wearing scuba gear which was weird for that time of night.
French Spies were ordered by their government to blow up the Rainbow Warrior so that no one could protest against their Nuclear testing. The French spies came on a plane claiming to be Swiss honeymooners, P.E teachers and anti-nuclear activists. Four french spies came on a boat hiding 25 kgs of explosives in its hull.
In French Polynesia, France were doing nuclear weapon testing in Tahiti and New Caledonia. With the new law of New Zealand being Nuclear free, lots of kiwi’s were keen to protest against Nuclear testing.
