- Synopsis:
For more than fifty years, Jacques Cousteau explored the earth and its water system. Since 1943 when he and Emile Gagnan developed the first regulated compressed-air breathing device for deep sea diving (the Aqualung), until his death in 1997, Captain Cousteau was a leading spokesman for the protection of the underwater world and the global environment and his work is carried on by the Cousteau Society. Born in France in 1910, Cousteau served in the French navy from 1930 until 1937 before resigning to become director of the Musee Oceanographique of Monaco, a post which he held until 1988. As well as his films he wrote over 50 books which have been published in more than a dozen languages.
