Baningi ososayensi abaphawula ukuthi namuhla kuncane noma kuncane kakhulu yilokho esikwaziyo hhayi kuphela ngomkhathi ongaphandle, kodwa ngohlelo lwethu lwonozungezilanga, kunjalo-ke ukuthi emasontweni ambalwa edlule into encane enendawo yayo etholakala ngokwengxenye itholakele noma ngokuphelele ngaphesheya kweNeptune ebuze ngokoqobo lonke ulwazi esinalo ngemizila yamaplanethi. Le ngenye yezindlela ezichazwa ngayo I-Niku, igama okubhabhadiswe ngalo le nto.
Ngokusho kososayensi abasebenza njengamanje ocwaningweni lwezimpawu zale nto exakile kabani ububanzi bungaba ngaphansi kwamakhilomitha angama-200Sikhuluma ngeminye imininingwane ethakazelisa kakhulu njengokuhamba kwayo kutholakala endizeni ethambekele kuma-degree angama-110 maqondana nendiza yesimiso sonozungezilanga ngenkathi ngasikhathi sinye ikwenza ohlangothini oluhlukile. Akungabazeki ukuthi izici ezimbili ezihlukile ezenze uNiku waba yinkulumo yazo zonke izikhungo zezinkanyezi emhlabeni.
I-Niku, isiphawulo sesiShayina sesihlubuki
Enye yezinkolelo-mbono zokuqala ngeqiniso lendlela into ehamba ngayo iphakamisa ukuthi kufanele ukuthi iguqulwe yinto engaziwa. Njengoba u-astrophysicist ephawula UMathewu J. Holman Kusuka eSmithsonian Observatory for Astrophysics, kuneminyakazo eminingi ohlelweni lwangaphandle lwelanga kunalokho esikwaziyo ngokugcwele.
Ngokusobala, ekuqaleni, ithimba likaHolman lalicabanga ukuthi ukuzungeza kwalo kungenzeka kuthonywe yileplanethi yesishiyagalolunye kuSolar System lapho iqembu lezazi zezinkanyezi laba nomthelela wokuqala ngoJanuwari walo nyaka ka-2016. ilahliwe njengoba iNiku yayiseduze kakhulu ukuthi ingathonywa yiyo.
Ngaphandle kokungabaza sikhuluma ngakho imfihlakalo entsha lokho, ngaleyo ndlela, wemukelwe ngentokozo enkulu ngumphakathi kwazise kungenzeka sibhekane nokutholwa okusha okusisiza ukuba siqonde kangcono ukuthi indawo isebenza kanjani.
