Asazi kakhulu ngabo bahlala emanzini olwandle

Ubomi abupheli, njengendalo yonke. Namhlanje, kunye nokuphuhliswa kwengcamango yenzululwazi kunye neendlela zobugcisa, le ngqungquthela iqhubekile ibe yinto yokuhlaziya. Kodwa amabini amabini adlulileyo indoda eyayizibuza ukuba ngubani owayehlala phantsi elwandle wayeya kubonakala ehlanya. Umfanekiso obalaseleyo wehlabathi awuzange ucinge ukuba khona kobomi emanzini ngaphandle kokuphefumula oksijini kunye nelanga. Ngako oko, umda wawuthatyathwa kwinqanaba elwandle, kwaye kwakukholelwa ukuba akukho namameli weeflethi okanye imfuyo engezantsi.

Kodwa ixesha lahamba, kwaye kwakukho ubungqina obumangalisayo bokuba nobomi kwiindawo ezinzulu zobunzima be-Ocean World. Ngowe-1850 izilwanyana ezininzi ezinzulu zibanjwe ukusuka kwikhilomitha yokujula. Kwiminyaka elishumi kamva, iintlobo ezilishumi zeentlobo zezilwanyana zafunyanwa kwi-cable ukusuka kwiikhilomitha ezimbini ezinzulu. Ngowe-1899, ihlabathi lezenzululwazi laboniswa intlanzi yokuqala yezilwanyana zasentlanzi, ihamba ngokuzithelayo kwiikhilomitha ezintathu, kwaye ubungqina obukholisayo bokuba bubomi buphindwe kabini.

Ngethuba lesibini kwisiqingatha esilandelayo, izazinzulu zaziqinisekile ukuba ngaphantsi kwe-bedwandle yolwandle (6000 meter), ngaphantsi kwe-elwandle, ngokuchanekileyo, i-gutters yamanzi aphantsi, ubomi bukhoyo ngenxa yokunyanzeliswa okukhulu. Kwaye kwathatha iminyaka emithathu kuphela ukuphikisa oku kubhaliweyo. Ngowe-1958, isitya seSoviet hydrographic "I-Vityaz" sabamba intlanzi engaziwayo ukusuka kwi-7.5 km, ngo-1959 nayo iphakamisa i-shellfish ukusuka kwi-kilometer eyi-kilometer. Ekugqibeleni, ngo-1960, uDon Walsh noJacques Picard baya ephantsi kweMarian Trench , indawo ejulile ye-Ocean World, kwi-Bathyscaphe "Trieste". Ukuphindaphinda i-feat yabo yedwa, ngaphezu kwehafu yeshumi emva koko, umlawuli wefilimu odumileyo uJacob Cameron, njengabo, wafanisa ukucwiliswa okunjalo kwindiza kwenye iplanethi. Bonke abathathu babona ngamehlo abo abahlala phantsi kwelo lolwandle.

Ewe, into ephawulekayo, eyoyikisayo ngokubonakala kwayo, kodwa uhlala uphumelela kwaye apha, apho kungabikho ukukhanya kwelanga (idibanisa ngokupheleleyo nakwiikhilomitha ukujula), uxinzelelo lwama-atmospheres angu-1072 luphindwe kabini ngaphezu kweVenus, iplanethi engabonakaliyo yeSolar System, kwaye Ubushushu bamanzi kuphela amadidiyure ambalwa ngaphezu kweqonga leqhwa.

Izidalwa ezisezantsi kolwandle zine-skeleton esithambileyo: kule nkcazo kukho amancinci amancinci e-calcium ekwakhiweni kwayo, kwaye nangona kungenakudingeka, akukho mihlali, ukukhawuleza kwezinto ezibangelwa ngamatye akufakwanga. Kweentlanzi ezithile, amehlo angenakukhanya ngokugqithiseleyo, abanye bahlala malunga nesiqingatha sentloko. Abanye babameli bezilwanyana zasolwandle olunzulu lubukeka njengentsika yesihogo. Kodwa oku kubonakala kungekhona ukwesatshisa ama-homo sapiens. Ngaphezu koko, kwiminyaka engama-52 bavakashelwe apha amaxesha amane ngaphantsi kweminyaka emi-4 ngenyanga. Izidlo nje zilapha kunzima ukufumana ukutya, ngoko ke amazinyo amakhulu amakhulu (ukuze ixhoba lingaphumi) kunye nemilomo emikhulu.

Phakathi kwabo bahlala emanzini amanxweme, abaninzi banamalungu omzimba. Ngoncedo lwabo, abemi bezinzulu bakhanyisa umendo wabo, bahlambe ixhoba, bathuke kwiintshaba, baxubane kunye kwaye baxhomekeke. Intlanzi yeyona ntlanzi eguqulelwe yintlanzi yilabo badibene nabaculi. Baye baphuma emzimbeni, ekupheleni apho i-colony ye-fungus ekhanyayo iphila. Ukulwela kuye njenge-flashlight, i-anglers iyasondela ngakumbi kwintlanzi engenakukhathazeka eya kubondla. Kwaye igama lento eliqhayisayo lizithetha ngokwalo: eli lizilwanyana elaneleyo ukuba livule umlomo, lindele ukuba intlanzi ibhukude kulo mgibe ophilileyo kwaye uyibeke!

Ngoku kutshanje, ngo-Matshi 2013, umyalezo wabonakala malunga nokuhamba ngokuphumelelayo kwerobhothi yamanzi angaphantsi kweMariana Trench. Kuzo zonke iintlobo ezahlukeneyo zalabo abahlala phantsi kwezilwandle kwiimeko ezibi kakhulu, izazinzulu zinomdla kwi-colony ye-bacteria. Ukuzifunda, abaphandi bazama ukufumanisa ukuba ezi zintlobo zezilwanyana zikhona kwezinye iiplanethi. Emva koko, ngokweminatha yamuva, kwi- satellite ye-Jupiter, iYurophu, kunye nesathelayithi yeSaturn, i- Enceladus, phantsi kwe-ice cream eqingqiweyo, kunokwenzeka ukuba ulwandle ...
