Into ethile yomlingo yenzeka kunxweme lweSouthern California.

NgoLwesine, iNewport Coastal Adventure, inkampani ebukela iminenga eNewport, eCalifornia, yathatha uFacebook ukuze babelane ngesiganeko sendalo esenzeka kanye ngoku kunxweme.

Hayi, ayingomboniso we-Avatar lo. Endaweni yoko, ngumboniso omangalisayo ofakwa ziihlengethwa ezimbalwa kunye nokukhanya okukhanyayo ebumnyameni.

I-bioluminescence eseNewport Beach ibiphumile kweli hlabathi, inkampani icacisile kwingcaciso yevidiyo ye-Facebook yentsholongwane. Izolo ebusuku uKapteni uRyan uthathe i-Zodiac wayokukhangela ihlengesi, kunye nomhlobo uPatrick Coyne bafota le ntsebenzo imangalisayo kunye nepod yamahlengesi njengoko bekhanyisile ubusuku.

Njengoko Isilumkiso sezeNzululwazi kuchaziwe, ukufumana imifanekiso efana nale kunqabile kakhulu. Inkcazo ekhanyayo yamahlengethwa ibangelwa zizinto ezincinci ezibizwa ngokuba yi-microscopic dinoflagellates . Isilumkiso sezeNzululwazi Yongezwe, ezi zidalwa zaselwandle zingamalungu osapho lweplankton. Kananjalo ziyenzeka ukuba zithande ukubamba. Xa ucofe okanye uchukumise iseli nganye kukhupha ukukhanya kwesibane ukuya kuthi ga kwi-100 milliseconds, phantse njenge alarm ye-burglar. Ukuba kukho iqela elipheleleyo le-algae eligxunyekwe kunye, njengoko ividiyo yeCoyne kunye neapos, iflip yesiphelo inokukhokelela kumdlalo.

Ukukhanya kuveliswa ngaphakathi kwidinoflagellates encinci yomzimba ngenxa iikhemikhali ezimbini: i-enzyme I-luciferase kunye ne-luciferin . Ngokudibeneyo, ziyakhanya xa isidalwa esoyika.

Kodwa nzulu, ungavumeli le mifanekiso serene ikukhohlise. Esi sisibetho esinzima ngokumangalisayo sokufumana, nokuba woyike kangakanani iplankton encinci ngamahlengesi.

Izolo ebusuku yayiyenye yezona mini zinomlingo ebomini bam, uCoyne wongeze umyalezo kwi-Instagram. Le yayiyeyona vidiyo icelomngeni endikhe ndayidubula ngezizathu ezininzi. Ukuqala, i-bioluminescence inamabala amnandi apho ibonakalisa khona kwaye emva koko iyaphela ngoko xa isemanzini akunakwenzeka ukuba uyifumane. Ayisiyiyo loo nto kuphela kodwa eneneni ukufumana naluphi na uhlobo lwesilwanyana kumnyama kumnyama kunzima kakhulu. Imiqathango kufuneka igqibelele ngokupheleleyo ukuze i-bioluminescence ibonakalise kwaye isilwanyana sidade kuyo ukuze sikwazi ukuyifota.

UCoyne wongeze, Ngaphezulu kwayo yonke into yokuzama ukukhonkotha ukugxila kwindawo ebanzi kunye nento ehamba emanzini yayiyiphupha elibi. Siphume iiyure ezimbalwa kwaye xa sisolula okokugqibela sabuya safumana iidonphin ezimbini ukuqala umboniso oqaqambileyo. Kwimizuzu embalwa kamva kwaye sabuliswa ngabambalwa ngakumbi ababengenangqondo. Ndinyanisile ndiyenza le nto.

Ngaba ufuna ukubona umlingo we-bioluminescence ngakumbi? Jonga amaza amenyezelayo eNewport Beach ngezantsi ukufumana umzuzu we-zen kwimpambano.
