While early explores either sailed the seas or trekked overland, 20th century explorer Jacques Cousteau's territory of discovery was underwater.

His many undersea adventures were documented in books, films, and television shows which brought the world under the water to life for millions of people. Topics include
- Cousteau's early career in the French navy
- undersea exploration before Cousteau
- ocean conservation and Cousteau's work with whales and dolphins
- the research ships and inventions
- Cousteau's work on an underwater living research program
