One of the most important science fiction novels in modern history; its author astonishingly predicted the scientific leaps that humanity will achieve a century and a half ago, and it was an inspiring motivation for us to believe in the importance of science fiction novels in modern history; its author predicted the scientific leaps that humanity will achieve a century and a half ago, and it was an inspiring motivation for us to establish a company that imagines; as it is a rare sample proving the dependence of science on literature. Verne was a genius with insight, as demonstrated by many of his other works, but this book is considered one of the wonders of his writings; the book itself did not influence the technological directions of the world, as no one read it for more than 130 years after it was written. The lost novel by Jules Verne, written in 1863, was not published because his literary agent and publisher considered it overly imaginative and unbelievable, and that publishing it would negatively affect the reputation of the emerging writer. Until his grandson found this handwritten manuscript of Jules Verne, which had not been published before, hidden in his closet. A prophetic novel about the future by one of the most important science fiction writers of modern times; published for the first time in French in 1994. The novel describes 1960s technologies with astonishing accuracy; it describes technological advances such as the internal combustion engine, including supporting sectors like gas stations and paved roads, suspended trains and subways, high-speed trains elevated on magnetic and compressed air systems, skyscrapers, electric lights illuminating the entire city at night, the fax machine, elevators, computers sending messages to each other similar to the internet, wind energy, automated security systems. The book also predicts higher education systems on a large scale, along with chains of stores and giant hotels, and it predicted many developments and changes in the music world. Unfortunately! This novel was unable to become a source of inspiration for the development of scientific, technological, and civilizational fields that it predicted and which we live today; as it remained confined for decades. Nevertheless, it remains a remarkable masterpiece because it was able to predict this future with high accuracy. We hope you enjoy this novel by Jules Verne, one of the giants of the founders of science fiction literature.
