Date: 1977 While exploring in our submersible, we discovered giant worms by underwater vents! Crazy!

Just figured out that ocean water is cycled through the earth's crust, changing its mineral composition in the process. All makes sense now!

Developing this new exploration technology that I will call "telepresence," I'll explain later...

Date: Jan 1st, 1943 Jacques Cousteau developed a breathing regulator he's going to call the "aqualung". Here's a pic

🐳🐠🐟🐬

Jacques explained to me that an aqua lung is a "self contained underwater breathing apparatus".. Whatever that means💁

Awh look!! Jacques and his friends! So cool!

Date: 1985 Completed my first search robot... I'm naming it Argo😏

Date: 1966 Jacques created what he calls streamlined scuba.. Allows for faster swimming and longer underwater🌊

Date: September 1st, 1985 Wow! I used Argo today and found the wreck of the R.M.S. Titanic. It was 12,000 feet deep!

Throwback...🚢 #Titanic

Date: 1989 Started the JASON Foundation for Education today. Helping kids learn about deep sea exploration⚓️

Date:1996 Can't believe I got the Lone Sailor Award for my naval service and work on underwater archaeology!!

I have gone on 120 explorations, man I can't believe how time has flown!

My ship the E/V Nautilus operated by my Ocean Exploration Trust spends four to five months at sea each year
