Great Pyramid of Giza's hidden chamber is revealed
Daily Mail ^ | 2 November 2017 | Harry Pettit

Posted on 11/02/2017 9:20:21 AM PDT by mairdie

The structure, also known as Khufu's Pyramid, is the sole survivor of the ancient Seven Wonders of the World. ... The scientists made the discovery using cosmic-ray imaging, recording the behaviour of subatomic particles called muons that penetrate the rock.

Detectors were set up inside the pyramid, including in the so-called Queen's Chamber.

This allowed the pyramid's insides to be seen without physically disturbing it, as the results showed empty space differently from rock.

The presence of the space, dubbed the ScanPyramids Big Void, was confirmed using three different detection technologies over several months after first being spotted, the paper said.

All the movies I’ve seen with pyramids in them end with sand coming into the main chambers and burying people alive to “Seal the tomb”.

Maybe it’s just the chamber that held the sand until it was time to pull the keystone/cord/switch.

Is that where the Stargate used to be? LOL

That first Stargate movie with Jamie Spader was cheesy but great at the same time and got my imagination running. What "Stargates" came after were B grade junk food.

The movie was much better than the series, especially after they started getting into the gaoul war lords. The last season almost sucked.

Somebody dust off Geraldo.

Geraldo's the first thing that popped into my head when I read this headline.

Geraldo's been making an absolute ass of himself lately over this latest terror attack on FNC. I didn't think I could loathe the man more then I already did, but I do now.

We are working on it and remember that “cheesiness abides” when you are making Hollyweird remakes.

His usual crap about muslim profiling and how they're such great immigrants even though they periodically slaughter innocent Americans. Plus he's a rude, obnoxious loudmouth jerk who constantly interrupts everyone who he disagrees with.
