Is the deep ocean more magnificent than outer space?
Live MintThe Underworld: Journeys to the Depths of the Ocean. On the “pale gold” seabed were obsidian rocks with “patches of neon-orange” and sea cucumbers grazing “like tiny translucent-purple cows”. For much of the 20th century oceanography flourished, popularised by explorers such as Jacques Cousteau, who wrote that the deep was a “silent world”. “Sing Like Fish”, by Amorina Kingdon, a science writer, is not as engrossing as Ms Casey’s book, but it compiles remarkable facts about ocean noise. The abyss brims with “primordial life”, he writes; creatures look as if they were “left behind from evolution’s oldest back alleys”.
