Have you ever noticed how Sci-Fi technology often becomes real technology?  Captain Nemo’s super submarine in the book (and later film)  “20,000 Leagues Under The Sea” was eventually developed as the first atomic submarine.  So much so that the United States Navy named it The Nautilis after the book.  You
