Secret of the Great Pyramid...hidden chamber is set to be revealed by an inflatable robotic blimp...
Daily Mail ^ | Thursday, December 14th 2017 | Harry Pettit

Posted on 12/14/2017 7:38:52 PM PST by SunkenCiv

The device enters rooms and chambers through a 3.5 centimetre hole drilled through a wall by researchers outside.

It is made up of two robots, a tubular machine equipped with a high definition camera and a probe that explores the structure via a small, inflatable blimp.

After the first robot has taken a series of reconnaissance images, the drone is pushed through the drilled hole before inflating itself within the chamber.

Packed with an array of sensors and cameras, the remote-controlled device collects data and takes photos or video without causing damage to the fragile building.

After it has completed its mission, the floating probe returns to its docking station and deflates before it is extracted via the the same tube it entered in.

The discovery was made using 'cosmic ray imaging' in which subatomic particles that naturally rain down from the sky are used to map buildings like an X-ray scan.

Now scientists hope to use a new minimally-invasive robot to explore why chambers such as these were built.

The project has been initiated by ScanPyramids...

“See? Until this single person dies ...”


Notice I used the past tense - as in ‘was’. He was demoted during the Egyptian Revolution which installed el-Sisi and someone else was put in charge - or maybe a committee. Hawass appointed no one. And as far as I know neither has Lehner. This is no a ‘single person’ problem, but a civilizational problem.

It is not just one person, but the entire community of Egyptologists who stand by the fairy tale of Egyptian history (prior to 30 BC and the Roman conquest), first concocted during the 18th century, polished in the 19th, and sugar coated for the masses in the early 20th.

Hawass is very much alive - only his position was taken away - not for his beliefs or support for the fairy tale, but for his boorish and bullying behavior - he just pissed too many people off, nor did he help his case by speaking against el-Sisi.

Hawass did not invent this modern version of the Ancient Egyptian fairy tale; it came about from various early adventurers - mostly Brits - who saw the world through eyes colored by the times, by colonialism, and by the dream of the British Empire.

It will take more than just the demotion of some lech in Egypt - this whole thing rests on the present civilization view that human progress is linear, progressing slowly until we get to the present age and the highest form of human civilization yet. Just a crock.

That entire paradigm will have to be overturned before any understanding of the true history of the human race can be discovered.

Now the statue of the very great Khepri rested in this place, great of fame, sacred of respect, the shade of Ra resting on him. Memphis and every city on its two sides came to him, their arms in adoration to his face, bearing great offerings for his Ka. One of these days it happened that prince Thutmose came travelling at the time of midday. He rested in the shadow of this great god. [Sleep and] dream [took possession of him] at the moment the sun was at zenith. Then he found the majesty of this noble god speaking from his own mouth like a father speaks to his son, and saying: "Look at me, observe me, my son Thutmose. I am your father Horem-Akhet-Khepri-Re-Atum. I shall give to you the kingship [upon the land before the living]....[Behold, my condition is like one in illness], all [my limbs being ruined]. The sand of the desert, upon which I used to be, (now) confronts me; and it is in order to cause that you do what is in my heart that I have waited.

As an engineer and machinist, he makes a convincing case, especially when dealing with sound. He’s on to something but his conclusions seem just ‘stuck’ in there. Any sufficiently large explosion in a tightly confined space has the power to move any amount of rock - just depends what is used and how much of it. Dunn said one component was hydrogen gas - that would work.

I’m sure you don’t believe those pyramids were meant to be tombs ... so Dunn’s idea about their purpose is as good as the next, IMHO.

Will Geraldo be there? ;-)

No, it's an inflatable robotic blimp. Clearly Algore. Maybe Hillary. Definitely not Jerry Rivers.

Yes, of course they were built to be tombs, the entire plateau is one big complex of tombs and burials, including the burial of the architect of the Great Pyramid, Hemiunu. I'm not sure when that doubt got started (I watched parts of the "In Search of..." linked above, it was in there 40 years ago) but it makes no sense at all.

I spent the night on top of that thing and Leonard Nimoy filmed me climbing down. One of the highlights of my life.

OK, why?

Why did I climb the pyramid? Because my favorite teacher told me that though these Egyptian cops would ride up with camels and guns and try to yell at us not to, that they wouldn’t do anything to stop us. And I was a teenager. ;)

Louis A. Frank — “I often recall the droll statement attributed to the famous physicist Max Planck who had also experienced considerable criticism from his colleagues. ‘Scientists don’t change their minds, they just die.’”

(ironically, Dr. Frank passed in 2014)

it looked like Olivia’s “Let’s Get Physical” spandex you were sporting, btw.

May see a ‘mammoth’ spaceship.

Omg worse. It was a child’s size Mickey Mouse shirt which we wore as teenagers because so tight. (Crimson face of shame)

The reference is to a sardonic remark by the physicist Max Planck: “Science advances one funeral at a time.”

Now we know the *real* reason the camel jockeys had the pyramid completely surrounded! ;^)

Lol. I don’t know how I made it through all those Arab countries. I had ZERO understanding of Islam. In Tunisia one sheikh in the bazaar offered many camels for me to my male friend and I’m lucky he didn’t take the deal. I still know that guy and I’ve thanked him for not making a cool trade and going home with 50 camels.

That’s almost too many camels for one backyard. :^) Plus getting through the baggage check would be, uh, yeah, have to take a boat back...

They must operate some of the controls with their trunks, because those feet are just too big.

Absolutely Awesome!

Unless you had to go pee.

The internal ramp theory answered many of the questions asked by sceptics about the external ramp theory or the Ancient Alien theory.

While we are discussing alaternatives to the traditional theories, why not go all the way and bring forward the theory that the pyramids aren’t made up completely of cut blocks of stone but might be filled on the inside with sand or rubble from the quarries of the cut and dressed outer shell. Makes sense to me because of the time needed to cut and dress stone plus the effort needed to move millions of stones weighing up to 2 tons.

(We were on a boat... still would have been hard to sneak them aboard.)
