Submarine Science - Dr. Milton Love
Dr. Milton Love on what he’s learned on his voyages into the unexplored depths of the deep, blue Pacific Ocean.

Milton - only his closest associates call him Dr. Love - has carried on an affair with the sea for most of his life. Unlike most love affairs, though, this one included nearly 15 years at 1,200’ below the surface of the waves in the Delta - a two person submarine maintained by a shadowy patron-who-will-not-be-named. Though the Delta is long gone, converted to more flowerpot and less research facility, Milton is still hard at work. In addition to writing massive tomes with names like “Certainly More Than You Want to Know About Fishes of the Pacific Coast,” he’s published widely in his field, in popular magazine and, sometimes, he even does an experiment or two.
Our conversation with him ranged from the role of observation versus theory in science, to how to be comfortable with uncertainty, to how true expertise requires constant revision. At the very end, he wraps it up succinctly:
“A sustainable human future requires deep abiding respect for the oceans. Nature has an unlimited number of ways to end you or any lifeform.”
