«Now I have risen above the thousand-fold saturated flame of light surrounding me. It no longer set me on fire, but bathed me in light similar to daylight. I was moved by high-speed and, thanks to their traction, unbridled cars, which in 1866 were a monster and the brainchild of a bankrupt. Like this we moved deeper, opening up abysses in front of them. Such machines managed to follow the entire space of the Arctic, from one sea to another, crossing the entire model with straits and canals, vast expanses of ice» (Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea).

Explanation:

This quote describes one of Jules Verne's science fiction discoveries - underwater navigation. In his works, he fantasized about technological developments that allowed people to explore and explore the depths of the oceans using submersibles.

From a real world perspective, underwater navigation is a relevant and important area of research and development until today. Submersible and underwater robotic technologies continue to advance, allowing us to delve into uncharted areas of the oceans and study their ecosystems, find wrecked ships and even explore underwater geological formations.

Regarding the development of the Arctic and the discovery of both poles, these issues also remain relevant in the 21st century. With climate change and melting ice in the Arctic, new opportunities are opening up for commercial and scientific exploration of the region. The discovery of both poles is also a significant achievement for the exploration and understanding of our planet.

Aviation and aeronautics, described by Verne in his works as advanced technologies, also remain relevant in the 21st century. Modern aviation technologies have become even more advanced and efficient, allowing us to travel long distances and carry out expeditions to remote corners of the planet.

Thus, although some of Jules Verne's ideas and discoveries may seem outdated by modern advances, many of them remain relevant and continue to inspire researchers in the 21st century.
