Although Jules Verne was not absolutely the earliest writer to make scientific speculation the theme of his writing, since Mary Shelley's Frankenstein is earlier, he did produce many more novels, with many more scientific speculations than Shelley did, and he played a greater role in making Science Fiction into a new genre of fiction. He was a thoughtful writer whose scientific speculations were based on real scientific knowledge.

II-Courtesy jules advincula biology :P
A Jule is a measurement of energy. It is relatable to both the physical measurements of work and kinetic and potential energies. For work: W=fd where W is work, f is a force applied over a d distance. The work can be repored in jules (J). For kinetic energy: KE=.5(m)(v)2 where KE is kinetic energy, m is mass traveling at a v velocity. Kinetic energy is reported in jules. For potential energy (gravitational potential energy): PE= mgh where m is mass, g is the gravitational constant 9.81 m/s, and h is the height of the object to the ground.
