Þurh his geƿeorce þǣre ƿorulde folc geleornode micel ymb underƿæterlicre libbendcyþþe.

In 1963 Cousteau and Jean de Wouters searƿodon þone underƿæterlican leohtātīefrend genemnedan "Calypso-Phot", and æfterra hē alīefede Nikon macian hit and hit ƿearþ se "Calypso-Nikkor" and æfter se "Nikonos". ǣ Hē and Jean Mollard macodon þone SP-350, þe is tƿǣm mannum undersǣbāt þe cūðe dȳfan 350 metras under sǣ.

Cousteau ƿearþ mǣrora. In Ƿinterfylleðe 1960 EURATOM ƿolde āƿeorpan in sǣ micelne radioactiviscne þreax. Cousteau organized a publicity campaign which gained wide popular support. Ƿīfa and cildru sǣton on þǣm īrenƿege and forstoppodon þone geƿægnoþ, and man þorfte senden þone þreax tō þǣm stede þanon hit cƿōm, and þæt plēo endode.

In þǣm æfterran Blōtmōnaðe Charles de Gaulle Francrīces foresittend ēode to Monaco and þǣr ƿordum ƿrixlode ymb þæt þe gelamp on Ƿinterfylleðe geares 1960 and ƿīdorlīce ymb cyrncræftlīe cunnungum.

During this discussion Cousteau found out that the reason for French experiments and research was American refusal to share its atomic secrets with its allies.

In 1992 inlāðode man hine tō Rio de Janeiro, Brazil for the United Nations' international conference on environment and development, then he became a regular consultant the UN and the World Bank.

Cousteau nemnode georne hine "oceanographic technician". He was in reality a sophisticated lover of nature, especially that of the sea. His work allowed people of all continents tō visit life under the ocean's surface and explore through television the resources of the "blue continent".

The works that Cousteau produced also created a new kind of scientific communication that caused some criticism by formal academics. The so-called divulgationisme, a simple comprehensible form of sharing scientific concepts, was soon used for other disciplines too and became one of the most important and appreciated characteristics of modern TV broadcasting. The documentary information found in Cousteau's words a linear scheme to follow.

Now Cousteau's figure is admired, beloved worldwide through the many who love the sea, and is regarded to with a sort of devotion, as symbolic of adventure, nature and exploration.

Jacques Cousteau forþfērde on 25um Sēremōnþes 1997 and man byrgede hine in Cousteau cynnes byrgenlande in Saint-André-de-Cubzac lictūne in Franclande.
