False, Pierre Aronnax was mates with the Captain Nemo in ''20,000 Leagues Under the Sea'', at the end of the book, Captain Nemo goes insane, and the submarine is heading towards a huge whirlpool, while Pierre tries to save himself, he is hit and goes unconscious, when he comes to he is in a fisherman's cabin off the coast of Norway, he never found out what happened to Captain Nemo or the others. Hope this helped! Have a good day!
