Iqela lehlabathi lezazinzulu elivela kwi-Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) liphanda izipikisi ezingaqondakaliyo eziphuma kwinkwenkwezi eneminyaka ezi-6.3 yezigidi kwi-constellation Hercules-iminyaka engama-95 yokukhanya ukusuka eMhlabeni. Iziphumo ziyamangalisa kwaye zikhomba kwimpucuko ehambele phambili kakhulu kunale yethu.
Umqondiso ongaqhelekanga wafunyanwa okokuqala ngoMeyi 15, 2015, nguIsikolo saseRussia seSayensi esiqhutywa Iteleskopu yerediyo ye-RATAN-600eZelenchukskaya, eRashiya, kodwa yagcinwa iyimfihlo kuluntu lwamanye amazwe. Intatheli yendawo yangaphakathi UPaul Gilster waqhekeza ibali emva kokuba abaphandi bethe cwaka iphepha libhengeza ukufunyanwa komqondiso oqinileyo kwicala le-HD164595.
FUNDA KUNYE: UMlawuli we-NASA utyhila iiNdawo ezi-4 ekunokwenzeka ukuba zoBomi boMphambukeli kwiNkqubo yethu yeLanga
Ukuchazwa kweenkwenkwezi ezingaqondakaliyo yi-HD164595, kwaye ithathwa njengelanga kwindalo enobumba obufana nentsimbi kwinkwenkwezi yethu. Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, iplanethi enye efana ne-Neptune (kodwa ishushu) ifunyenwe kumjikelezo wayo-HD 164595 b. Kodwa njengoko uGilster echazayo, Kunokubakho nezinye iiplanethi ezingafakwanga kule nkqubo.
Umhlobisi we-SETI wase-Italiya kunye nesazi sezibalo uClaudio Maccone kunye neRussiaUNikolai Bursov we-Special Astrophysical Observatory zeziiingcali zenzululwazi ezisebenza ekufumanekeni okubonakalayo. Babanga ukuba ukubekwa esweni ngokusisigxina kokujoliswe kuko kuyafuneka.

Umqondiso unokulingana ngokufanelekileyo kwiprofayili yokuhambisa ngenjongo evela kumthombo ongaphandle, utshilo uAlan Boyle, umbhali Ityala likaPluto oxele bani ibali likaGeekwire. Kwimeko nayiphi na into, i-blip inomdla ngokwaneleyo ukuba ifanele ingxoxo ngabo banobuchule bokukhangela ubukrelekrele bangaphandle.
Amandla esignali abonisa ukuba ukuba ngenene yayivela kwibhakoni ye-isotropic, umthombo wamandla kuya kufuneka wakhiwe yimpucuko yohlobo lwe-Kardashev II. (Isikali seKardashev sisetyenziselwa ukumisela inkqubela phambili yophuhliso lwetekhnoloji yempucuko ngokulinganisa ubungakanani bamandla asetyenzisiweyo ukuhambisa umyalezo we-interstellar. amandla kulo lonke uhambo.
Kumsebenzi wakhe odumileyo wokuThunyelwa koLwazi ngamaPhuculo oMhlaba oPhuphumileyo, isazi ngeenkwenkwezi saseSoviet uNikolai Kardashev wachaza ukuba uhlobo lwe-II lwempucuko luya kuba nakho ukusebenzisa amandla enkwenkwezi yabo yonke. Owona mzekelo uqhelekileyo wokuqikelela oku iya kuba yi-Dyson Sphere-sisakhiwo esikhulu esenziweyo esinokuhlanganisa ngokupheleleyo inkwenkwezi kwaye sidlulisele amandla kwiplanethi ekufutshane.

Ngokusisiseko, ukuba umqondiso wawugqityiselwe ngaphandle komthala ngaphandle kwenjongo okanye ulwalathiso, oko kuya kufuna isixa esikhulu samandla ukuze sibhaqwe. Kodwa kuthekani ukuba umqondiso ubudanyiselwe ngokukodwa kwisibhakabhaka sethu? Ewe, oko kungadinga amandla amancinci kwaye kunokubonisa ubukho be-Kardashev yohlobo lwe-impucuko-ethetha ukuba ingangumbutho wezobuchwephesha, wanamhlanje osebenzisa amandla elanga akhutshwe yinkwenkwezi yendawo, ngokungathi umhlaba wethu wenza ngeephaneli zelanga. Olu lwakhiwo loluntu lwempucuko lwenzelwa ukuba lube kwihlabathi liphela kwaye linxibelelane.
Umqondiso ukhuthaza ngokwaneleyo ukuba abaphandi be-RATAN-600 bafuna ukubekwa kweliso ngokusisigxina, utshilo uGilster. Kwaye yile nto kanye eqhubekayo. Ukusukela phezolo, iziko leSETI liphambukisa iAllen Telescope Array yalo emantla eCalifornia ukuphanda ngelixa oogxa babo eMETI International (Messaging Extraterrestrial Intelligence) beza kusebenzisa iPanama iBoquete Optical Observatory.
Ukufunyanwa komqondiso omangalisayo kunye nophando olulandelayo kuya kuxoxwa kwi-IAA SETI yeKomiti esisigxina ngexesha le-67th International Astronautical Congress eGuadalajara, eMexico, nge-27 kaSeptemba-kwangolo suku lunye nalapho U-Elon Musk iya kutyhila eyakhe iceba ukwenza iMars . Umjongi uya kulandelela omabini la mabali avela kwiCongress.
URobin Seemangal ujolise kwi-NASA kunye nokukhuthaza ukukhangelwa kwendawo. Wazalelwa kwaye wakhulela eBrooklyn, apho ahlala khona ngoku. Mfumane I-Instagram Umxholo onxulumene nendawo: @iamfanlalisa
