Andaman Excursion
But before you dive in the cool blue waters, Andaman Excursion brings you a brief on scuba diving. The word ‘Scuba’ is a short form of Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus (SCUBA), which is basically the pivotal equipment used in scuba diving. Prior to the invention of SCUBA, diving was a cumbersome activity, where a diver had to breathe air supplied from the surface through a tube.
The credit for inventing SCUBA goes to a French diver Jacques Cousteau, who along with Emile Gagnan developed the equipment that enabled divers to take the compressed air in a tank. This freed the divers from the tangled web of breathing lines that they had to attach to their diving suits.
If you thought scuba diving is all about fun and nothing else. Think again. Scuba diving is of immense help in oceanography. The sport also helps in the study of marine life and underwater exploration.
