Minnesota-based Flying Fish Exhibits constructed and designed the exhibit, with MOSH eyeing future collaborations in the near future. Starting Saturday, visitors can join the Voyage, with MOSH planning themed activities and events in its education department for children in preschool up to teens in the 11th grade. Having contracted diabetes, Verne died at home at the age of 77."Voyage to the Deep," a new offering from the Jacksonville Museum of History and Science, opens its hatch and invites the public aboard for an exhibit themed after the 1870 Jules Verne novel "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea." He was wealthy and successful in his own time, and is remembered as one of the founders of science fiction. Verne was a prolific writer, publishing two books a year for a number of years.
Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, published in 1870, is an example of this new genre of novel. Although Verne’s father tried to force him to give up writing in favor of becoming a lawyer, Verne persisted, and ended up inventing a new genre: the Roman de la Science (novel of science), which is now regarded as an early form of science fiction. He frequented literary salons, and became friends with the writer Alexander Dumas. Verne lived in Paris during the French Revolution of 1848. As a young man, he fell in love with two women who ended up marrying other men: first his cousin Caroline, then a young woman named Rose Herminie Arnaud Grossetière. From an early age, Verne was fascinated by maritime exploration and adventure.
He began writing fiction and poetry while a schoolboy, but was sent to study law in Paris by his father, who was himself an attorney. Jules Verne was born in the port city of Nantes, France.
