The Darmstadt Science Fiction Club invites you to a literary evening with biologist and science journalist Bettina Wurche on Saturday, June 13, 2026. The focus of the lecture is \"Jules Verne and the Discovery of Marine Research.\" The event will take place as part of the Darmstadt Science Fiction Club's monthly meeting at the Adebar restaurant in Eppertshausen. The meeting begins at 6 p.m., and the lecture starts at 8 p.m. in the side room of the TAV Hall at Jahnstra\u00dfe 2. How much science is in Jules Verne's novels? Jules Verne (1828\u20131905) is considered a pioneer of the science fiction novel. His works combine technological innovations and scientific discoveries with exciting adventure stories. The lecture will focus on his famous novel \"Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea.\" In it, Verne sends the marine researcher Professor Aronnax, together with Captain Nemo, on an extraordinary journey across the world's oceans. Bettina Wurche illuminates which scientific findings the author incorporated into his work, how advanced marine research actually was in the 19th century, and what technological visions Verne envisioned ahead of his time. The speaker combines science and science fiction. The speaker studied zoology, fisheries science, and paleontology in Hamburg and has been involved in science communication for many years. On her blog \"Meertext,\" she publishes articles about marine research, the deep sea, climate change, polar regions, and astrobiology. As a long-standing member of the Science Fiction Club Germany, she regularly connects scientific topics with the world of science fiction in her lectures. Admission is free. The lecture is part of the \"Special Event\" series, organized by the Darmstadt Science Fiction Club together with the Science Fiction Club Germany and other partners. Admission is free. The event takes place in a separate side room, so attendees of the regular meeting can freely decide whether they wish to attend the lecture. (DARMSTADT \u2013 RED\/PM)"}
