Captain Cook Memorial Lighthouse at Point Danger

Captain Cook Memorial Lighthouse at Point Danger


Coolangatta, Australia (AU)
Point Danger is home to the Captain Cook Memorial Lighthouse. It lays claim to being the first in the world to experiment with laser technology (1971) to create its beam, but the experiment was unsuccessful and it returned to the more conventional mirrors, magnifying glass and powerful electric lamps (1975?).
