Yenziwa njani i-Kraken, kusetyenziswa inguquko yokufota kulwandle olunzulu

Kuba nabani na owazalwa ngaphambi kweminyaka yama-90, i-Kraken yayingu-Godzilla wehlabathi laseNtshona, iskwidi esikhulu esathi sasiwanyanzela ngokungenanceba amacebo oomatiloshe baselwandle, nokuba bathini na, nokuba bangabahloli bamazwe okanye ngabaphangi.

Ukusukela ekuqaleni kokushicilelwa, iincwadi ezininzi ziye zabonisa ingwane enkulu, IArchiteuthis, Ukutyumza iinqanawa kunye nawo wonke umntu onokungena kuye. Oku kufuneka ukuba kuncede uluntu lubalekela, kunye nokuphonononga indawo ngakumbi kunolwandle loMhlaba.

I-ORCA ka-Edith Widder ebizwa ngokuba yiMedusa kunye ne-e-jelly system yafumana iskwidi esikhulu kwifilimu

Isidalwa senziwe umbulelo kubuchule buka-Edith Widder bokubamba

Nangona intsomi ye-squid enkulu iye yaphela, izazinzulu azikhathalelanga oko kwaye ziyaqhubeka nokufunda ezona mizekelo mikhulu. Abaphulaphuli ziinqwenela zokubukela le nkqubo yokufumanisa.

Umbhali wolwandle UEdith Widder kwakubaluleke kakhulu ekurhwebeni isidalwa kunye nokufaka imifanekiso ephezulu yaso okokuqala ngqa, ebutsheni balo nyaka.

Emva kokuvavanya uluhlu olubanzi lokuntywila emanzini olwandle, waqonda ukuba nokuba bathule kangakanani na iinkqubo zokuqhubela isenokuba sisandi sokuphazamisa izidalwa ezinzulu zaselwandle kwindawo yokuhlala efileyo kwaye zoyikise.

Emva kokuyalelwa ukuba "azingele" ingxilimbela, wayeyazi kakuhle into amakayenze, ngokunxulumene nokufota nzulu elwandle. Uphuhlise i iqonga elingabonakaliyo equka i umgibe optical, ebizwa ngokuba yi-e-jelly, iqhotyoshelwe kwiqonga lekhamera elinikwe ibhetri, nelathiywa igama eMedusa.

I-e-jelly decoy ilingise iimpawu zoxinzelelo lwe-bioluminescent ezenziwe yi-jellyfish xa ihlaselwa, edla ngokutsala izilwanyana ezinkulu ezifana ne-squid enkulu. Ekuphela komthombo wokukhanya weMedusa wokufota kwiimeko ezimnyama ezimnyama eziqukethe isibomvu Iphaneli ye-LED. Ukukhanya okubomvu akubonakali kwiifom ezinzulu zasemanzini.

I-Tsunemi Kubodera isebenze ngempumelelo kwi-squid yokuqala yokurekhoda

Kukhenketho oluya kunxweme lwaseJapan, ekhokelwa yingcali ye-squid uTsunemi Kubodera, esi sixhobo sasungulwa kwaye sasebenza njengekhubalo. Enkosi ngenkqubo yenguqulelo kaWidder kunye namava kaKubodera wokudibana kwangaphambili, a Umzekelo weemitha ezingama-30 ubude yathathwa okokuqala, kwindawo yayo yendalo.

Ukujongwa kolwandle olunzulu kufuna ukuzibophelela okufanayo kuloo ndawo

UEdith Widder Inqwenela ukuba ukuhlola ulwandle kube nombutho ofana neNASA. Oku bekuya kukhokelela ekufumanekeni okukhawulezileyo kwesampulu ephilayo ye-squid enkulu, kunye nokuqonda okungakumbi kwendalo. Ngo-2005, waseka i-Ocean Research & Conservation Association (i-ORCA), ezinikele ekuphuhliseni izixhobo ezitsha ze- ukukhuselwa kwendalo yamanzi.

Kuphela malunga 5% iilwandle zethu ziye zahlolwa. U-Edith Widder uthi ngokuqinisekileyo kukho izinto ezimangalisayo eziza kwenziwa phaya, hayi izidalwa ezintle kuphela kodwa iikhompawundi eziphilayo ezinokunceda ilizwe lonke, ngeendlela ezingekacingwa.
