This lecture addresses the relationship, if any, between ethics and science.  Storytelling in science, more important than usually 'fessed' up to, will be examined first. The moral implications of any narrative will lead to a consideration of whether any ethics might emerge from normative science. The very qualified and constrained 'yes' that will emerge will come out not from fear or reproducibility but from telling first time narratives and the bond of poets and scientists to the objects they describe.
