He excited and educated people by bringing the underwater world-sharks, whales, penguins, dolphins, and sea turtles-within reach. This remarkable man also created important inventions like the aqualung, which allowed people to breath underwater. Even Cousteau's beloved ship, the Calypso, used as his home and office for more than forty years, became well known. His legacy lives on in the conservation efforts of the Cousteau Society.
