Wonke umntu onomdla wokude kwindalo engaphandle komhlaba ukhangela ubungqina obuqinisekileyo, into ebonakalayo neyinyani. Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, ubungqina obubambekayo abukho. Ukwakheka kwesangqa sesityalo kubonakala kungumzekelo omnye, ukanti izazinzulu eziphambili azikaqinisekisi indalo yazo ngabakhenkethi bamanye amazwe.
Omnye umzekelo wobungqina bokwenyani unokuvela kwiintsalela zomfazi wamandulo waseSumeri, uKumkanikazi uPuabi. Ngaba iDNA yakhe inokutyhila ukuba wayengengomntu ngokupheleleyo? Kuya kufuneka silinde impendulo, njengoko kungekho ziphumo zovavanyo zizayo.
Umzekelo wesithathu wobungqina bezinye iindwendwe zehlabathi unokuvela kwilitye elihle eliluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka elibizwa ngokuba yi-Sky Stones. Ilitye eliluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka eline-matte elineemitha ezimhlophe liye laba ngumxholo we-lore ukususela kwi-90s. Ibali libalisa ngomntu ongaqondakaliyo, isazi sokuma komhlaba ogama linguAngelo Pitoni owatyelela eSierra Leone eNtshona Afrika.
Inguqulelo emfutshane engangqinisiswanga yeli bali ihamba ngolu hlobo: ngowe-1990, isazi sejoloji yaseItali, uAngelo Pitoni wathenga amatye aluhlaza angaqhelekanga kwiNkosi yeFula eSierra Leone eNtshona Afrika. Isizwe sibanga ukuba la matye avela kwiindwendwe zakwamanye amazwe ezivela esibhakabhakeni.
UPitoni wabuyela ekhaya eYurophu waza wazisa amatye angaqondakaliyo eyunivesithi ukuze avavanywe. Iziphumo zabonisa ukuba amatye awahambelani nasiphi na isimbiwa esaziwayo.
Abaphandi abakwazanga ukuchaza ukuba kutheni amatye egcina umbala oluhlaza. Xa iqhekeza elincinane lalicolwa laza lajongwa phantsi kwe-microscope, kwakungekho mbala ubhlowu ubonakalayo. Ukufudumeza ilitye kumaqondo obushushu aphezulu akunakuyitshintsha iminerali. Iiasidi bezingayi kuyichitha.
Uhlalutyo olongezelelweyo lubonise ukuba i-77.17% yelitye yi-Oxygen. Ukwakhiwa okuseleyo kwakuyiCarbon, iCalcium, kunye ne-organic compound engaziwayo. Ubudala beSky Stones bunokuba neminyaka engama-55,000 ubudala.
Ngokuqinisekileyo uPitoni wayekho, wabonwa kunye naMatye esibhakabhaka kwiifoto, kodwa ukufumana ubungqina obunzima bobomi bakhe konke akunakwenzeka. Amabali akwi-Intanethi awanakumangalisa ngakumbi, ebonisa ukuba wayehonjiswe ngeNkwenkwezi yeSiliva yaseMelika, ngandlel’ ithile ebandakanyeka kwiCIA, iarhente eyimfihlo, umhloli wamahlathi eAmazon, kunye nomfumani wesixeko saseMayan.
Namhlanje, ibali liphinda libe nomdla ngenxa yochungechunge lweSiteshi seMbali "Abaphambukeli baMandulo" kunye nenye indoda, igcisa laseMelika, kunye nomyili, uJared Collins. Kwi "Star Gods of Sirius," uCollins uvela ephethe ibrifkheyisi ephethe iisampulu ezininzi zeSky Stones. Ekugqibeleni, imfihlelo ibonakala iza kuphela, njengoko amaziko ahloniphekileyo avavanya amatye.
UCollins wazama ukufumana isampulu yezinto eziluhlaza okoko waqala ukuyibona ngo-2013 enomthengisi wamatye anqabileyo eHong Kong. Umthengisi wabalisa ibali elingaqhelekanga lokuba amatye avela esibhakabhakeni kwaye wayenesampuli evavanyiwe kwi-GRS Swisslabs nguGqr Preeti. Emva kweenyanga ezili-15 elinde iziphumo, ugqirha “akazange akwazi ukumisela indlela emile ngayo waza ekugqibeleni wayibuyisela njengengaqondwayo.”
Enomdla, uCollins wazama ukuthenga isampuli, kodwa umthengisi wala. UmMelika wemka engenanto, kodwa ibali lahlala engqondweni yakhe. Wenza uphando kwi-intanethi kwaye wafumanisa konke malunga nebali elingaqhelekanga lika-Angelo Pitoni kunye nelitye lakhe elenziwe nge-oxygen. UCollins akakwazanga ukulandelela ulwazi ngale ndoda. Endaweni yoko, wagxila ekufumaneni izandla zakhe kwiSky Stone kunye nokufumana ubungqina bokwenyani.
Kwimyuziyam ka-Erich Von Daniken, iMystery Park, e-Interlaken, eSwitzerland, isampuli yahlala iboniswa, kunye nemifanekiso emele izinto ezingaqhelekanga ezivela esibhakabhakeni, iNomoli. Ngelishwa, imyuziyam ayinakuhlukana nesampuli yelitye.
Njengecebo lokugqibela, uCollins wabuza kumthengisi wamatye anqabileyo eHong Kong kwakhona. Okwammangalisayo kukuba, umthengisi wavuma emva konyaka. Isampulu efanayo yavavanywa kwi-GRS Swisslabs yayikhona ukuba uyayifuna. Yafika ineleta eyayichaza indlela eyafika ngayo eHong Kong.
Umthengisi wamatye anqabileyo wadibana nendoda yaseTaliyane eyayithengisa amatye anqabileyo e-Auroville, eIndiya egama linguVijay. Kamva kwisemina e-Italy, uVijay wambonisa isampulu yeSky Stone awayesifumene kumhlobo wakhe, kwaloo Angelo Pitoni. Kwimbalelwano noCollins, uVijay wachaza okwenzekileyo kwaye wayekholelwa ukuba ilitye livela kwinkwenkwezi uSirius B.
“Iqhekeza lelitye lesibhakabhaka okulo ngoku lafunyanwa yingcali yokwakheka komhlaba kunye nomhambi ogama linguAngelo Pitoni xa wayeseSierra Leone. Apho, abemi bomthonyama banentsomi ethi “idayimani ziinkwenkwezi eziwa esibhakabhakeni.” Eqhula kunye nabo ngenye imini, uPitoni wathi: Kodwa ukuba iinkwenkwezi ziwile, isibhakabhaka kufanele ukuba siwile! Impendulo yabo yathi: "Ewe, kwaye siyazi apho iwele ..."
Ishaman yasekuhlaleni yamzisa kwindawo apho kwakukho amaqhekeza ale Material eluhlaza phantsi. Ukugrumba emhlabeni, wafumana ngaphezu kwe-200 kg yayo eyayingekho kwindalo yendalo, kodwa kunokuba ibekwe kwimilo yephiramidi. Kamva ndaboniswa imibhalo ekhutshelweyo yengxelo evela kwinzululwazi yokwakheka komhlaba eyayisithi lo mbandela wawungenakuchazwa.”
UCollins wafumanisa ukuba eli bali linika umdla, kodwa yayilixesha lokufumana obona bungqina wayebunqwenela. Wathatha isampuli yeSky Stone kwiYunivesithi yaseWashington Earth kunye neSpace Sciences icandelo lokuvavanya ngoMatshi 6, 2019. Ngokwebali kwi-intanethi: “Ukuqinisekisa ukuba uvavanyo lwenziwa ngokungenamkhethe, akazange axelele iDyunivesiti ngokuthe ngqo ukuba bavavanya ntoni. Kuphela kukuba loo nto kwakucingelwa ukuba yawa ezulwini yaza yafunyanwa phantsi komhlaba.”
Emva kweminyaka yokuhamba kunye nophando, uCollins waqinisekisa ukuba iSky Stones ayifani nayo nantoni na eMhlabeni.
Ngaphezulu kweminyaka emi-5 yokufunda kunye nophando kundizise kwihlabathi jikelele kwaye ndibuye ndizame ukuqonda ukuba yintoni le nto iluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, efana nelitye. Ngelixa ndiye ndakwazi ukuqokelela intaba yeengxelo zenzululwazi ezivela kwimithombo engaphezu kwe-16, ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, akukho namnye - akukho namnye - akukho namnye umfundi, okanye iYunivesithi, okanye isazinzulu esizimeleyo, okanye ilabhoratri, onokuchonga okanye ukuqonda imvelaphi okanye indlela yokudala Izinto eziphathekayo.”
Kubonakala ngathi iSky Stones yenye yodidi. Ngelixa ingengobungqina bokuba i-extraterrestrial izise amatye eMhlabeni, isebubungqina obunzima kunye nokutya okucingayo. Ikwayinxalenye nje enye yebali elikhulu malunga nesizwe sama-Afrika kunye neenkolelo zabo malunga nezidalwa ezivela esibhakabhakeni.
