Marine biologist and oceanographer Sylvia Earle was one of the first scientists to experiment with scuba gear in the early '50s, and since then, she has been a leader and pioneer in underwater exploration. As part of Unapix's Great Minds of Science series, this short and sweet biography details the impressive career of Earle, from her humble beginnings to her astonishing free dive to a depth of 1,250 feet beneath the ocean's surface. Along with her physical achievements, Earle's technological contributions to oceanography have been astounding. For those that believe Jacques Costeau to be the world's only oceanographer, this video will be an eye-opening experience. ~ Ed Atkinson, Rovi
