Ua ʻike nā kānaka ʻepekema ua pae paha nā dinosaurs ma ka mahina 65 miliona mau makahiki i hala. He aha i hana ai? E like me kā kākou ʻike, ʻo kākou nā kānaka wale nō ka mea i hele i waho o ka honua a hele i ka lewa, ʻo ia hoʻi ka mahina. ʻO Armstrong ke kanaka mua i hele ma ka mahina, a ʻo ka manawa āna i hehi ai i ka mahina hiki ke kākau ʻia i loko o nā puke mōʻaukala. Akā, manaʻo kekahi poʻe ʻaʻole ʻo ke kanaka wale nō nā mea i komo i ka lewa, a ʻoi aku paha nā mea ola ʻē aʻe ma mua o ke kanaka. Manaʻo kekahi poʻe ʻepekema ua komo nā dinosaur i waho a pae i ka mahina 65 miliona mau makahiki i hala ma mua o ke kanaka.
ʻO ke kanaka wale nō ka mea naʻauao i ka mōʻaukala evolutionary o ke ola. Pehea e hiki ai i nā mea ola ʻē aʻe ke lele i ka mahina? No ka mea aia ia manaʻo kuhi, pono ke kumu ʻepekema e kākoʻo ai. Ma mua o ka lawe ʻana mai o Changʻe 5 i ka lepo o ka mahina, ua loaʻa i ko kākou ʻāina nā pōhaku mai ka mahina mai, no laila pehea i loaʻa mai ai kēia mau pōhaku? ʻO ka hapa nui o nā pōhaku i ʻohi ʻia mai Antarctica, koe naʻe nā makana mai ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa. ʻAʻole hiki i Antarctica ke ʻohi wale i nā pōhaku mai ka mahina, akā i nā pōhaku mai ka Mars, me kekahi mau meteorites asteroid. Ua loaʻa i ka hui huakaʻi ʻepekema Kina Antarctic ma mua o 10,000 meteorites ma Antarctica.
Hoʻomaopopo ʻia ka ʻohi ʻana i nā meteorites asteroid no ka mea he nui nā moʻolelo o nā asteroids e hāʻule ana i ka lewa a hāʻule i ka honua. Akā ʻo nā pōhaku mai ka mahina a me Mars, no ke aha mākou e ʻohi ai iā lākou? ʻOiaʻiʻo, maʻalahi ka hoʻomaopopo ʻana: i nā makahiki cosmic lōʻihi, ua paʻi ʻia ka mahina a me ka Mars e kekahi mau kino lani liʻiliʻi (e like me nā asteroids, comets) i kēlā me kēia manawa. E lawe i ka Mars i kumu hoʻohālike. Ke loaʻa ka hopena, inā lōʻihi ka nui a me ka wikiwiki o ke kino lani liʻiliʻi, hiki iā ia ke wāwahi i nā pōhaku ma ka ʻili o Mars i ʻāpana. Inā pololei ke kihi hopena, e loaʻa i kekahi o nā ʻāpana ka ikehu kinetic e pakele ai i ka umekaumaha o Mars a komo i ka lewa. Ke "auwana nei" lākou ma ka lewa, a e hopu ʻia kekahi mau ʻāpana e ka ʻumekaumaha o ka Honua a me ka "puʻu" i ka ʻili o ka Honua. Ma kēia kaʻina hana, e puhi ʻia kekahi mau ʻāpana liʻiliʻi a me nā ʻāpana i hoʻonohonoho ʻia i ka lewa me ke kaomi kiʻekiʻe a me ka wela kiʻekiʻe a me ke kinoea, a hiki i ka ʻili o ka honua ke koena nui a me nā ʻāpana paʻa. Ua kapa ʻia lākou ʻo "Mars rocks". Pēlā nō, ua wāwahi ʻia nā lua nui a liʻiliʻi ma ka ʻili o ka mahina e nā asteroids.
No ka hiki ʻana mai o nā pōhaku ma ka mahina a me ka Mars i ka honua, hiki anei i nā pōhaku ma ka honua ke hiki i ka mahina? No ke aha i ʻōlelo ʻia ai ʻo nā dinosaur ka mea mua i pae i ka mahina?
Ma kahi o 65 miliona mau makahiki i hala aku nei, ua paʻi ka honua i kahi honua nui me ke anawaena o 10 mau kilomita a me ka nui o 2 trillion tons i ka honua a waiho i kahi lua nui. ʻOiai ua uhi ʻia ka lua i kēia manawa, ʻaʻole hiki iā ia ke kanu i ka pōʻino i loaʻa ia manawa. Ma muli o ka nui o ka honua, ua kīkē ʻo ia i kahi "puka" pōkole i ka lewa. Ma hope o ka paʻi ʻana i ka lepo, hiki loa i ka nui o nā ʻāpana pōhaku i kīkē ʻia mai ka honua. ʻOiai ʻo ke kino lani kokoke loa i ka Honua, e hopu paha ka mahina i nā ʻāpana o nā pōhaku o ka Honua i lele i waho ma muli o ka hopena. Ma mua o ka hiki ʻana mai o kēia "pilikia", ua ola nā dinosaur i ʻoi aku ma mua o 100 miliona mau makahiki, a ua nui ka nui o nā mōʻalihaku dinosaur i noho mua ma ka honua, no laila ʻaʻole hiki iā mākou ke kāpae i ka noho ʻana o nā mōʻalihaku dinosaur i nā ʻāpana i kīkē ʻia i ka mahina.
No laila, mai ka manaʻo o ka ʻepekema ʻepekema, ʻo nā dinosaur maoli nō ka mea mua i pae i ka mahina. ʻOiai he manaʻo noʻonoʻo ia, hiki ke hoʻomaopopo loa ʻia e ka ʻepekema. Malia paha i kekahi lā ma kēia mua aku, ʻike maoli mākou i nā mōʻalihaku dinosaur ma ka mahina, a ʻaʻole pono mākou e kāhāhā i kēlā manawa.
