It could possibly refer to Jules Verne (1828-1905) a French author who is credited as being the founder of the science fiction genre. Verne's first literary works were short stories that incorporated lots of scientific elements considered to be "too scientific" for his time; similar to how Star Trek mythology traditionally focuses on “realistic” scientific principles. The specific technologies Verne described in his narratives were imaginary at the time written despite the fact they exist in some form today. Star Trek lore parallels this phenomenon illustrated by comparing "tricorders" to "smart phones". Today's "smart phones" have more functions and capabilities...

Today's "smart phones" have more functions and capabilities than the fictitious “tricorders” do; in essence the abstract electronics are now a reality. Verne’s theme of "fake science" based on "real science" heavily influenced Star Trek. Basically the “life” of Star Trek in “based on short stories written by a bitch named Verne”. Verne is noted as having a somewhat difficult personality (he suffered from depression) and isn't universally recognized as a serious literary contributor. He also authored “Journey to the Center of the Earth” and “Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea” later in life.
Anyone know who "Vern" is?
Nope, but I know who Spock is. :D It amuses me to no end that a song this intense it a Star Trek reference.
