Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (No Brasil: Viagem ao Fundo do Mar) foi uma série de televisão de ficção científica, baseada no filme de mesmo nome, estrelada por Richard Basehart, como o Almirante Nelson, e David Hedison, como o Capitão Crane. A série contava as venturas e desventuras do submarino Seaview em suas missões. A partir da terceira temporada, foi incorporado à série um pequeno submarino com capacidade de voar que marcou presença em vários episódios. Ele era chamado de "Sub-Voador" (Flying Sub em inglês). Entre os vários tripulantes, havia um marinheiro de ascendência polonesa chamado Kowalski, que frequentemente era escolhido pelo seu superior imediato (Chef Shark) para ser o "voluntário" em todas as missões externas ao submarino que envolviam grande risco de morte.
The Seaview is on a joint mission with Russian scientists to salvage the remains of a Soviet undersea lab. While a scientist is being lowered in the diving bell, a giant whale arrives and rams the bell. The glass is shattered, killing him.
Nelson and the remaining Russian scientist, Katya Markova, go on a second dive. The whale reappears, this time swallowing the diving bell whole! Now it's a race against thime as Captain Crane and the crew of the Seaview find the diving bell and get it out before Nelson and Markova run out of oxygen!
Cybernetic genius Tabor Ulrich creates a perfect mechanical duplicte of Admiral Nelson. His plot: to make the crew of the Seaview they are fighting World War Three. In doing so, the sub will launch nuclear missles at the China, Russia and the USA. After the holocaust, Ulrich plans to take over and usher in "the age of the cyborg".
Defecting scientists create a proton bomb, but are killed by a foriegn power and the bomb is captured. A surviving scientist works at disarming the bomb...with other plans in mind.
Seaview rescues two men adrift at sea, only to discover they are escaped prisoners intent on not returning to prison. While they attempt to hijack the sub, an undersea creature surfaces to menace the Seaview.
Cruising for days under the ice, Seaview surfaces to find the sky is ablaze thanks to the Van Allen belt catching fire. Nelson races to Washington to confer with fellow scientists and hatches a plan to detonate a nuclear device into the atmosphere and extinguish the fire. Weber, a Fellow scientist, feels they should do nothing and allow the fire to burn out. Nelson disagrees and takes Weber and two others aboard Seaview to decide the course of action as the sub races to the firing point. However, Weber is determined to stop Nelson and is willing to kill to do it!
A scientist and his secretary come aboard Seaview when their research vessel is sunk by a giant Portugese Man-Of-War. They want Admiral Nelson to return to the scene, but won't tell him the real reason.
Dr. Alex Holden is hunting a gigantic whale in which he has injected an experimental growth serum. It turns and destroys his boat, killing his crew. He is rescued by Seaview, which was on en route to plant a nuclear device to blast an undersea channel Holden obsesses over getting his swallowed equipment from the whale when it turns and comes at the sub, swallowing the bomb as it is being lowered! Nelson cannot detonate the bomb, as the president's carrier is in the area. The nearly insane Holden steals Nelson's remote detonating device and threatens to blow up the whale if he's not permitted to get samples of the whale.
Captain Gantt, an ego-maniacal scientist, is in a nuclear sub testing a powerful new fuel. Due to his bungling, the sub crashes into a giant web and is attacked by a monsterous sea spider. The Seaview investigates and rushes to retrieve the remaining fuel canisters before the enormous underwater pressure collapses the test sub abd detonates the fuel - an explosion which would kill millions!
With Admiral Nelson away, his old friend Admiral Park takes over Seaview's current mission. Dr. Borgman is conducting experiments, and Park suspects he is up to no good.
Drs. Paul Ward and Peter Omir have discovered a powerful new element -- Subterranium 116. This element can produce limitless pure energy, but Omir may have another agenda.
Captain Krueger returns to compel Nelson to shoot Crane. Once that is done, Krueger takes over Crane's body and searches out a host for Lani, Krueger's dead lover, so the two can be reunited. Can Admiral Nelson save his friend and end the plans of the evil Captain forever?
