No single man has impacted the exploration of the under water world like Jacques-Yves Cousteau. He was a co-inventor in the creation of self contained breathing apparatus (SCUBA), which fulfilled his vision and desire to make it possible for others to share in the adventures waiting under the sea. With the creation of his television series, he shared the insight of his discoveries and changed forever the perspective that we have regarding the sea. We learned from him that it must be protected for future generations.

The use of Rod Sterling's voice to narrate the series, gave visions from other television series like the Twilight Zone, to intrigue us to go beyond what is seen and into the possibilities of the unknown. Each person that had seen one of the series either consciously or unconsciously felt from the narrator's voice, a certain mystical draw, and great anticipation for the information forthcoming. Whether it was intentional or not, it instilled the desire to uncover mysteries, that for so long were hidden, and people began to seek out the beauty of God's creation in the oceans of the world.

Jacques-Yves Cousteau is for the diving population what Picasso was to the art world. He forever will be an explorer that shines a light and leads us from being uncaring about the under water world, to preserving it for many generations to come. Because of his television series many newcomers to the diving world sought out opportunities for ocean experiences and possible employment in tropical places. They hungered to be like Jacques-Yves Cousteau, and to find discoveries of their own to share with the world.

May the current generation, through all the mass media, and internet find some way to learn enough about the Underwater world, that they will hunger for the adventure that is still out there to enjoy.
