I ka makahiki 1996, ua ʻike ke kanaka hulihonua ʻAigupita ʻo Aly Barakat i kahi pōhaku liʻiliʻi ʻē aʻe ke nānā aku i ka hikina hikina. ʻAʻole ia i ʻoi aku ma mua o kahi ʻiliʻili, 3.5 mau kenimika wale nō ka laulā i kona ākea a me kahi smidge ma luna o 30 gram i ke kaupaona. ʻO ka pōhaku e ʻike nui ʻia ʻo ka "Pōhaku Hypatia" ma hope o kahi wahine makemakika wahine a me ke akeakamai o ke kenekulia ʻehā, nāna i hoʻopūʻiwa i nā ʻepekema e kekahi o kāna ʻano pohihihi.
Mai ka loaʻa ʻana o ka Pōhaku Hypatia i ka makahiki 1996, ua hoʻāʻo nei ka ʻepekema e ʻike i kahi o ka ʻiliʻili pohihihi ua puka mai.
ʻOiai ʻo ka Hypatia Pōhaku i ʻike mua ʻia i extraterrestrial i kumu i hele mai i ka honua ma o ka meteorite, ua hōʻike hou ʻia ka loiloi ʻaʻole kūpono ia i kekahi mahele i ʻike ʻia o meteorite.
ʻO kahi papahana i paʻiʻia ma ʻO Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta ma ka 28 Dec 2017 e ʻōlelo nei ma ka liʻiliʻi he mau micro-compound i loko o ka pōhaku i hoʻokumu ʻia ma mua o ka loaʻa ʻana o kā mākou Lā a i ʻole o nā paneta i ka ʻōnaehana lā, no ka mea ʻaʻole kūlike kēlā mau ʻāpana i nā mea a mākou i ʻike ai i loko o kā mākou ʻōnaehana lā.
ʻO ka mea hoʻohui kemika o ka Hypatia Pōhaku ʻaʻole ia e like me nā mea ʻepekema i loaʻa ma ka Honua a i nā kometa a meteorite paha a lākou i hoʻopaʻa ai.
Wahi a ka noiʻi, ua hana ʻia ka pōhaku i loko o ka nebula mua o ka lā, kahi ao nunui o ka lepo homogenous interstellar kahi i hana ai ka Lā a me kona honua. ʻOiai kekahi o nā mea i loaʻa i ka ʻiliʻili e loaʻa ma ka Honua — kalapona, aluminika, hao, silikone — aia lākou i nā lakio ʻokoʻa loa ma mua o nā mea a mākou i ʻike ai ma mua. Ua loaʻa hou i nā kānaka noiʻi nā daimana microscopic i ka pōhaku a lākou i manaʻo ai ua hana ʻia e ka haʻalulu o ka hopena me ka lewa o ka Honua a i ʻole ka pā.
I ka manawa i ʻike ʻia ai ka Pōhaku Hypatia he pōhaku extraterrestrial, he nūhou kupaianaha ia no nā mea noiʻi a me nā mea puni honua a puni, akā i kēia manawa ua waiho ʻia nā nīnau hou a me nā hopena i nā nīnau nui aʻe e pili ana i kāna kumu maoli.
Hōʻike hou nā haʻawina i ka wanaʻao nebula lā ʻaʻole paha e like me ka homogenous e like me kā mākou i manaʻo ai ma mua. Ma muli o ka hōʻike ʻana o kekahi o kona ʻano kemika i ka nebula lā ʻaʻohe ʻano like o ka lepo ma nā wahi āpau - kahi e hoʻomaka ai e ʻimi i ka manaʻo i ʻae ʻia o ka hoʻokumu ʻia ʻana o kā mākou ʻōnaehana lā.
Ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe, manaʻo ka poʻe loea kilokilo kahiko he hōʻailona ka Pōhaku Hypatia i ka ʻike kiʻekiʻe o ko mākou mau kūpuna kahiko, e like me kā lākou, ua loaʻa iā lākou mai kekahi mau ʻano extraterrestrial kiʻekiʻe.
ʻO kēlā me kēia mea, ke hoʻāʻo nei nā mea noiʻi e ʻimi hou i nā kumu o ka pōhaku, lana ka manaʻo e hoʻoponopono lākou i nā nane a Hypatia Stone i hōʻike ai.
