Best Answer

A Japanese Invasion Fleet set out for Port Moresby from Rabaul. It was protected by a Covering Fleet of one small carrier and two Fleet Carriers. In order to stop the invasion the allies had a Task Force of cruisers under the command of the Royal Australian Navy which went to protect Port Moresby from the Invasion fleet while the two US Fleet carriers took on the Japanese carriers. The two day battle was about even. The Lexington was lost and so was the small Japanese carrier. The Japanese invasion fleet went home. No invasion. The Battle was over. The End.
