Ukufiphala kwenyanga kwanamhlanje kuphawula ukubonakala okwesibini kwenyanga yegazi kulo nyaka kunye nelona xesha lide ekusithekeni kwenyanga.UJose Antonio Hervás / iNASA Izigidi zabantu kwihlabathi liphela ziya kubona into enqabileyo yesibhakabhaka namhlanje njengenyanga-ukukhanya okuqaqambileyo kwesibhakabhaka okuhlala kukhanyisa isibhakabhaka ebusuku-kuguqula umbala omnyama ombala. Kodwa ungakhathazeki, yonke le nto iyinxalenye yendalo ebizwa ngokuba yinyanga yegazi.
Igama legazi lenyanga lisetyenziselwa ukuchaza ukubonakala kwe-orb yasezulwini ngexesha lokusithwa kwenyanga, okwenzeka ngalo lonke ixesha uMhlaba udlula phakathi kwelanga nenyanga. Ngexesha lokudlula, isithunzi seplanethi yethu siwela phezu kwenyanga, sithintela ukukhanya kwelanga okuqhelekileyo kubonakalisa. Ngokungafani nokusithwa kwelanga yinyanga — xa inyanga idlula phakathi koMhlaba nelanga, icima ukukhanya kwenkwenkwezi — inyanga ayijiki ibe mnyama, kodwa endaweni yoko ibonakala njengombala obomvu onzulu.
Oku kungenxa yefuthe lomoya.
Ngexesha le ukusithwa kwenyanga , uMhlaba uvimba ubuninzi bokukhanya kwelanga, kodwa hayi konke. Ukukhanya okunye kusachukumisa ubuso benyanga. Njengokuba ukukhanya okuvela kwimitha yelanga kuhamba ngeatmosfera yoMhlaba, uninzi lwemibala kwimbonakalo ebonakalayo iyahluzwa ngenxa yokusasazeka. Kuphela bubude obude obomvu kunye neorenji obukwaziyo ukufikelela kumphezulu wenyanga, bunike loo hue ibomvu kwaye bayifumane njengesihloko senyanga yegazi.

Ukufiphala kwanamhlanje kuphawula ukubonakala okwesibini kwenyanga enegazi ukuza kuthi ga ngoku kulo nyaka, kwaye le ikwahlukile njengoko ikwenzeka njengeyona mfutshane ekude yenyanga kule nkulungwane.
Ukusa ngolwesiHlanu ebusuku nangoMgqibelo kusasa, inyanga iya kugutyungelwa ngokupheleleyo nguMhlaba kangangeyure enye kunye nemizuzu engama-43. Ngeli xesha lifutshane, inyanga iya kukhanyisa umbala obomvu o-eerie, ke qiniseka ukuba uphume phandle ujonge phezulu.
Siyabulela kwisayensi, siyazi ukuba le nto ibonakala ingaqhelekanga yinto eqhelekileyo-kwaye ilungile. Namhlanje, ezi ziganeko zasesibhakabhakeni zingunobangela wokubhiyoza ngamatheko okubukela, iindlela zendlela kunye neengxoxo ngeenkwenkwezi. Kodwa oko kwakungasoloko kunjalo.
Iimpawu eziMandla aNgokwemvelo: Ukubaluleka kweNyanga yeGazi ukuhambisa amaXesha
Ukutyhubela imbali, ngalo lonke ixesha isathelayithi yethu yayigqunywe ngumthunzi woMhlaba, iinxalenye zoluntu zasilela ukujongana nazo ngokuqhwanyaza nokumangalisa, endaweni yoko zikubona njengophawu lwentshabalalo ezayo. 
Ukufiphala kwenyanga kwanamhlanje kuya kuqala nge-3: 30 emva kwemini. I-EST, kunye nenyanga igcina ubuso bayo obubomvu de kube ngu-5: 13 emva kwemini. EST.UFred Espenak / iNASA
Amasiko amandulo kunye neenkolo kwihlabathi liphela zazama ukucacisa ubukho bokusithwa kwelanga yinyanga nokuvela kwenyanga. Uninzi lwala mabali lwalubonisa oothixo, iidemon kunye nezidalwa zasentsomini ezazisongela ngokudla ilanga okanye inyanga. Abantu babethandaza, benze amadini kunye nemibingelelo ukugxotha abo babeza kutshabalalisa.
Umzekelo, abantu baseIncan bakholelwa ukuba umbala obomvu obomvu ungqinwe ngexesha lenyanga enegazi ubangelwe yijaguar ehlasela itye inyanga. Bakholelwa ukuba i-jaguar inokujika ijonge eMhlabeni, ke abantu baya kukhwaza, bagungqise imikhonto yabo kwaye benze izinja zabo zikhonkothe kwaye zibhomboloze, ngethemba lokwenza ingxolo eyaneleyo yokugxotha i-jaguar.
Ngenxa yobuchule babo bokuqikelela iziganeko zesibhakabhaka, abantu baseMesopotamiya yakudala babejonga izinto ngokwahlukileyo. Bakujonga ukusithwa kwenyanga njengokuhlaselwa ngokuthe ngqo kukumkani. Bade bade bafune nokuqesha ibhunga eliphindwe kabini — elalidla ngokuba lilungu loluntu elibonwa njengelifaneleyo — ukuze lizalise ikumkani ngexesha lokusithwa kwelanga yinyanga. Nje ukuba umnyama ugqithe, inkosi yokwenyani yayiza kubuya kwaye iphindwe kabini ayinakuphinda ibonwe. Kwenzeka ntoni kubo, asinakuthetha ngokuqinisekileyo.
Abanye bade basebenzise ukusithwa kwelanga ngenjongo yokuzizuzisa bona buqu, besebenzisa uloyiko lwabanye.
Ngo-1504, umphandi owaziwayo UChristopher Columbus yaxhalabisa inkxalabo abemi baseJamaican ababenayo ngaphezulu kwenyanga ebomvu krwe. Ngexesha lokuhamba kwakhe kwesine kunye nokugqibela ukuya kwihlabathi elitsha, uColumbus kunye neqela lakhe baphazanyiswa bubhubhane beenqanawa zomkhumbi. Izidalwa zazityhutyhe iinqanawa zazo zimbini, kwaye abasebenzi baphoqeleka ukuba bazishiye iinqanawa zabo.
Abemi besiqithi bamkela uColumbus neqela lakhe, bethembisa ukubanika ukutya. Noko ke, kwiinyanga ezintandathu kamva, ukubuk 'iindwendwe kwabo kwakugugile. UColumbus — exhobe ngealmanac eyayixela kwangaphambili ukusithwa kwelanga yinyanga okuzayo — wadibana nenkosi yalapho, emxelela ukuba uthixo ongumKristu wayenomsindo ngenxa yengqumbo yomthonyama yalapho kuColumbus neqela lakhe. Uthe inyanga ezophayo izakuvela esibhakabhakeni, uphawu oluqinisekileyo lomsindo kaThixo. Xa kwenzeka ukusithwa kwelanga, abemi besiqithi bothuka kakhulu bazisa amalungiselelo eColumbus, becela ukuxolelwa. Umhloli wamazwe wathi abemi baxolelwa kanye njengokuba umnyama waphela kwaye ukukhanya kwenyanga kubuya.
Ubukhulu becala, umbono woluntu ngezi zibuko zasezulwini uye wavela kwiinkulungwane ukusuka koyikwa ukuya kubhiyozelwa. Ukanti ngaphandle kokuba nezixhobo zokuxela kwangaphambili ukuba ziza kwenzeka nini kwaye phi ezi ziganeko zasesibhakabhakeni, abanye abantu abasenalo nofifi kwaye bakhetha ukuzibona njengembonakalo yokufa.
Njengoko kungqinwe yibali likaColumbus, ubuKristu kudala buthelekisa ukusithwa kwenyanga nengqumbo kaThixo. NgeCawa yePasika iwela emva Inyanga yokuqala epheleleyo yasentwasahlobo , kwaye ngenxa yoko, ukusithwa kwelanga kungadibaniswa nokubethelelwa kukaYesu. Nangona kunjalo, kwaqala ngo-2013 ukuba inkcazo yegazi yenyanga idityaniswe nokusithwa kwelanga yinyanga. Oku kuyinxalenye ngenxa yokukhutshwa kwencwadi ebizwa Iinyanga ezine zeGazi ngumlungiseleli ongumKristu uJohn Hagee.
I-Hagee ihamba ngeenkolelo ezibizwa ngokuba yi isiprofeto senyanga yegazi Ukuqaqambisa ukulandelelana kwenyanga ukusithwa kwelanga yinyanga okukuko kwenzeka phakathi konyaka wama-2014 nowama-2015. Ucacisa ukuba zonke ezi ziganeko zenzeka ngeeholide zamaJuda-ezenzeka nje kathathu ngaphambili-kwaye zenzeka ngexesha elinye.
Isiprofeto sikaHagee sabonisa ukuba yi-hokum, kodwa ileyibhile isaphila.
Ngelixa ukusitheka kwelanga kusesekusithekeni ngapha koko usika, iilebhile ezimibalabala zihamba indlela ende ekutsaleni umdla woluntu. Ke, ngokusebenzisa igama igazi lenyanga, mhlawumbi sidibanisa inkolelo kunye nesayensi. I-moniker itsala umdla esibhakabhakeni nasekufiphaleni kwenyanga, kodwa endaweni yokulinda intshabalalo nentshabalalo, ngoku sikhetha ukuyijonga njengobungqina bentshukumo enomdla neyinyani yenkqubo yethu yelanga. 
Ngexesha lokusithwa kwelanga ngokupheleleyo, inyanga kuqala ingena kwi-penumbra, okanye icandelo elingaphandle lesithunzi somhlaba, apho isithunzi sisangena ngokukhanya kwelanga.I-NASA
Uyijonga nini kwaye njani indlela yokuBonwa kweLunar
Umsitho ophambili wanamhlanje uza kuqala nge-3: 30 emva kwemini. I-EST, kunye nenyanga igcina ubuso bayo obubomvu de kube ngu-5: 13 emva kwemini. EST. Kodwa isiganeko sasezulwini siza kuqala iiyure ezimbalwa ngaphambi koko, xa inyanga ifihliwe kuphela yinxalenye ekhanyayo yesithunzi somhlaba, ebizwa ngokuba yipenumbra. Ukuba unexesha, unokuwubona umnyama ukusukela ekuqaleni kuye esiphelweni, ubukele njengoko inyanga itshintsha imibala ebomvu kwithuba leeyure ezine.
Ngelishwa abo kuthi bahlala eMntla Melika baya kunyanzelwa ukuba babukele umsitho kwiscreen sekhompyuter yethu, uhlobo lwendalo lwejumbotron.Kulabo bantu banethamsanqa abahlala eMpuma Afrika, kuMbindi Mpuma nakuMbindi weAsia, konke okufuneka ukwenze kukuya ngaphandle ujonge phezulu. (Ukuba uhlala eNtshona Afrika, eMzantsi Melika, eYurophu okanye e-Australia, uya kuba nembono ekhethekileyo!)
Kodwa musa ukoyika!
Ukuba awukwazi ukuphuma uye kubukela okanye kungabonakali kwindawo yakho, Slooh izakuba ngumsasazo osasazekayo umsitho wokonwabela ukujonga kwakho, ukuqala ngo-1: 00 p.m. I-EST ngoJulayi 27. Kwaye njengebhonasi eyongeziweyo: i-intanethi ngokungathandabuzekiyo iya kubonelela ngeembono ezintle ezivela kwihlabathi liphela ongazukuzifumana kwiyadi yakho yangasemva.
