Timeline

1916

Willard Newell Bascom (November 7, 1916 – September 20, 2000), was an engineer, adventurer and scientist, as well as a writer, photographer, painter, miner, cinematographer, and archeologist, who first proposed using Neoprene for wetsuits to fellow scientist Hugh Bradner.

He authored several books which include the topics of waves, geology, archaeology, poetry, and oceanography.

In his book Deep water, Ancient Ships he first proposed the hypothesis that anoxic water in the Black Sea would preserve ancient Black Sea shipwrecks.

1960

He led the first test drillings for Project Mohole, and was project director from 1960-1962.

Bascom was a consultant to the Advisory Committee on Government Organization.

He also served as the Technical Director of the Advisory Committee on Civil Defense of the National Academy of Science and National Research Council.

1973

From 1973 to 1985, Bascom served as director of the Southern California Coastal Water Research Project, funded by various city and county sewage districts.

Bascom took the somewhat controversial view that human food waste in sewage could feed growing populations of fish.

“In Los Angeles, one-third of the sewage solid waste went through garbage disposals, food that we might have eaten,” he once said.

“But whether the food went through us or around us, it makes no difference to sea animals.”

1980

In 1980, Bascom was awarded the Explorers Club Medal, their highest honor.
