Yes. For all practical ( and theoretical) purposes Mr. Verne was the Grand old Man or fore-father of Science Fiction. He also wrote material which was straight adventure and not sci-fi at all such as Michael Strogoff. Verne avoided the subject of extraterrestrial life but he did theorize in the dim past, the Moon had an atmosphere.
