In 1948, between missions of mine clearance, underwater exploration and technological and physiological tests, Cousteau undertook a first campaign in the Mediterranean on board the sloop Élie Monnier, with Philippe Tailliez, Frédéric Dumas, Jean Alinat and the scenario writer Marcel Ichac.

Edgerton worked with the undersea explorer Jacques Cousteau, by first providing him with custom designed underwater photographic equipment featuring electronic flash, and then by developing sonar techniques used to discover the Britannic.

Cousteau changed course a few degrees off the optimal course to the center of the strait, and the porpoises followed for a few minutes, then diverged toward mid-channel again.

He called his then eldest son, the architect Jean-Michel Cousteau, to his side.

The Admiral makes then Cousteau responsible for the creation of the underwater research unit of the French Navy ( the GRS, Groupe de Recherches Sous-marines, nowadays called the CEPHISMER ).

The Commission consisted of a number of notable persons including Professor Joseph Rotblat, recipient of the 1995 Nobel Peace Prize ; Michel Rocard, former Prime Minister of France ; Robert McNamara, former United States Secretary of Defense and President of the World Bank Group ; General George Butler, former Commander of the United States Strategic Air Command ; Doctor Maj Britt Theorin, then President of the International Peace Bureau ; Field Marshal Michael Carver, former Chief of the General Staff and Defence Staff ; Professor Robert O ' Neill, Chichele Professor of the History of War at Oxford University and former director of the International Institute for Strategic Studies ; and Jacques-Yves Cousteau, oceanographer and environmentalist.

Frédéric Dumas then participated with Jacques-Yves Cousteau in the discovery of the underwater world and in bringing it to the attention of the general public.

After the armistice of 1940, the family of Simone and Jacques-Yves Cousteau took refuge in Megève, where he became a friend of the Ichac family who also lived there.

Having kept bonds with the English speakers ( he spent part of his childhood in the United States and usually spoke English ) and with French soldiers in North Africa ( under Admiral Lemonnier ), Jacques-Yves Cousteau ( whose villa " Baobab " at Sanary ( Var ) was opposite Admiral Darlan's villa " Reine "), helped the French Navy to join again with the Allies ; he assembled a commando operation against the Italian espionage services in France, and received several military decorations for his deeds.

These include: Potter's Tavern, said to have been built in the 1750s, but restored to its appearance in 1776 when it was home to The Plain Dealer, considered New Jersey's first newspaper ; Brearley ( Masonic ) Lodge, founded by General James Giles in 1795, and still active ; the so-called " Nail House " ( c. 1815 ; second build c. 1855 ), administrative home of the Cumberland Nail & Iron Works that established Bridgeton's industrial prowess in the early nineteenth century ; the first Cumberland National Bank building ( 1816 ), only the second bank chartered in New Jersey ( now part of the Bridgeton Library ); and the David Sheppard House ( 1791 ), recently restored with assistance from the Garden State Historic Trust and home to the Cousteau Coastal Center of Rutgers University since 2008.

The album has 4 tracks: Calypso, Calypso part 2, Calypso part 3 Fin de Siècle and Waiting for Cousteau.

Much of the work was funded in part by the French Petrochemical industry, who, along with Cousteau, hoped that such manned colonies could serve as base stations for the future exploitation of the sea.

Frédéric Dumas ( 1913 – 1991 ) was part of a team of three, with Jacques-Yves Cousteau and Philippe Tailliez, in which he was nicknamed Didi.

* Jacques Cousteau

Jacques-Yves Cousteau (; commonly known in English as Jacques Cousteau ; 11 June 1910 – 25 June 1997 ) was a French naval officer, explorer, conservationist, filmmaker, innovator, scientist, photographer, author and researcher who studied the sea and all forms of life in water.

Romanovsky and other French scientists, including Louis Fage and Jacques Cousteau, repudiated the claim, saying that Romanovsky had in mind a much smaller amount.

The public interest market is covered by a number of diving, shipwreck and underwater archaeology books, beginning with the works of Jacques Cousteau.

He worked on famous projects like the Century 21 Exposition, 1964 New York World's Fair and Expo 67, with such notables as Walt Disney, Frank Lloyd Wright, Buckminster Fuller, Mies van der Rohe, Louis I. Kahn, Paul Rudolph, Marcel Breur, José Luis Sert, Edward Durell Stone, Minoru Yamasaki, Harry Weese, Moshe Safdie, Jacques Yves Cousteau, Alexander Calder, and Edward Larrabee Barnes.

The Aqua-Lung was invented in Paris during the winter of 1942 – 1943 by the engineer Émile Gagnan and the lieutenant de vaisseau ( ship-of-the-line lieutenant ) Jacques Cousteau, both of France.

He is known for his long-running-role as SpongeBob SquarePants in the television series of the same name, as well as the live-action character Patchy the Pirate, Gary the Snail and the French narrator based on Jacques Cousteau.

Famed oceanographic researcher Jacques Cousteau described the oceanic whitetip as " the most dangerous of all sharks ".

He worked as the co-director and cameraman to Jacques Cousteau on the Oscar and Palme d ' Or-winning ( at the 1956 Academy Awards and Cannes Film Festival respectively ) documentary The Silent World ( 1956 ) and assisted Robert Bresson on A Man Escaped ( French title: Un condamné à mort s ' est échappé ou Le vent souffle où il veut, 1956 ) before making his first feature, Ascenseur pour l ' échafaud ( released in the U. K. as Lift to the Scaffold and in the U. S. originally as Frantic, later as Elevator to the Gallows ) in 1957.

They already had a daughter Diane Cousteau ( born 1980 ) and a son Pierre-Yves Cousteau ( born 1982 ), born during Cousteau's marriage to his first wife.

Many aqualungs have been anachronistically depicted in comics in stories set during World War II, when in reality, at that time period, aqualungs were unknown outside Jacques-Yves Cousteau and his close associates in Toulon in south France.

In 1949, Cousteau left the French Navy.

The video of this expedition, called " The Secret of the Sunken Caves ", is included in the 2005 Cousteau video collection " The Jacques Cousteau Oddyssey: The Complete Collection.

There have been infrequent scientific and amateur radio expeditions, and in 1978 Jacques-Yves Cousteau visited with his team of divers, plus a survivor from the 1917 evacuation, to film a television special called Clipperton: The Island that Time Forgot.

Cousteau was born on 11 June 1910, in Saint-André-de-Cubzac, Gironde, France to Daniel and Élisabeth Cousteau.

Cousteau completed his preparatory studies at the prestigious Collège Stanislas in Paris.

After an automobile accident cut short his career in naval aviation, Cousteau indulged his interest in the sea.

In Toulon, where he was serving on the Condorcet, Cousteau carried out his first underwater experiments, thanks to his friend Philippe Tailliez who in 1936 lent him some Fernez underwater goggles, predecessors of modern swimming goggles.

Jacques-Yves Cousteau and Marcel Ichac shared the same desire to reveal to the general public unknown and inaccessible places — for Cousteau the underwater world and for Ichac the high mountains.

These prototypes were made in Boulogne-Billancourt by the Air Liquide company, following instructions from Cousteau and Émile Gagnan.

When making Épaves, Cousteau could not find the necessary blank reels of movie film, but had to buy hundreds of small still camera film reels the same width, intended for a make of child's camera, and cemented them together to make long reels.

At that time, he kept his distance from his brother Pierre-Antoine Cousteau, a " pen anti-semite " who wrote the collaborationist newspaper Je suis partout ( I am everywhere ) and who received the death sentence in 1946.

During the 1940s, Cousteau is credited with improving the aqua-lung design which gave birth to the open-circuit scuba technology used today.

According to his first book, The Silent World: A Story of Undersea Discovery and Adventure ( 1953 ), Cousteau started diving with Fernez goggles in 1936, and in 1939 used the self contained underwater breathing apparatus invented in 1926 by Commander Yves le Prieur.

Cousteau was not satisfied with the length of time he could spend underwater with the Le Prieur apparatus so he improved it to extend underwater duration by adding a demand regulator, invented in 1942 by Émile Gagnan.

In 1943 Cousteau tried out the first prototype aqua-lung which finally made extended underwater exploration possible.

In 1946, Cousteau and Tailliez showed the film " Épaves " to Admiral Lemonnier, and the admiral gave them the responsibility of setting up the Groupement de Recherches Sous-marines ( GRS ) ( Underwater Research Group ) of the French Navy in Toulon.
