摘要

Spurred By Presidential Decree and a perceived threat from the Soviet Union, the space race superseded ocean exploration on the American science agenda during the Cold War. As a result, more is known today about the dark side of the Moon than the bottom of the sea. "The conquest of space may be a great national or individual achievement, but it is not a part of the average man's world," said William A. Nierenberg, a distinguished physicist and the institution's seventh director, who is credited with launching oceanography into the Space Age. During his 22- year tenure as director, Nierenberg brought new research and scientific innovations to Scripps in a concerted effort to fill gaps in researchers' knowledge of the oceans while acquiring satellite and computer technology to modernize the century-old science of oceanography. "He was very quick to see the important developments in science on national and international levels, and he anticipated how these would impact oceanography," said Scripps archivist Deborah Day.
