Special: "We are prisoners.’ radios
Cousteau to NASA and nearby ships in
“Blizzard at Hope Bay."’ The show's
most dramatic moments occur during
brief scenes of the Antarctic blizzard,
in which the damaged Calypso is cov-

ered by an estimated 30 tons of ice.

Before the onslaught of over 90-mph
winds and snow, Cousteau and his
divers film a colony of virtually extinct
fur seals; flocks of penquins migrating
to ice floes for the winter; and the div-
ers themselves, frolicking in the sub-
freezing waters. Cousteau also en-
counters and rescues Dr. David Lewis,
an Australian adventurer lost at sea
