Jacques-Yves Cousteau (June 11th, 1910 - June 25th, 1997) was a French naval officer, explorer, ecologist, scientist, innovator, film-maker, photographer, author, and researcher whose innate, insatiable curiosity led him to a lifetime of studying the world's oceans and seas and all forms of life in, around, AND above water. He was instrumental in the development of the Aqua-Lung, without which the sport of SCUBA diving would be unknown in today's world. He was a masterful pioneer in the field of marine conservation and was a member of the Académie Française. Cousteau was born in Saint-André-de-Cubzac, Gironde, (France) to Daniel and Élisabeth Cousteau. He is generally known in France as "le Commandant Cousteau" (Commander Cousteau). Worldwide, he is commonly known as Jacques Cousteau or Captain Cousteau. Please access the related links below for more information:

Watson and Crick are probably the most obvious example here. They solved the riddle of how genetic information was stored inside our cells. They produced the first model of the 'double helix' structure that everyone now recognises as DNA. In their own words: "We've discovered the secret of life."
