The Undersea World of Jacques Cousteau captivated American television viewers, introducing them to the natural wonders of the ocean and illustrating how little we knew about life under the sea.
While Jacques Cousteau passed away in 1997, his family has carried on his legacy of ocean exploration, including his grandson, Fabien Cousteau, who recently completed a unique underwater mission. That mission included researchers from Northeastern University and our very own WGBH News Science Editor Heather Goldstone.
