New scans revealed unprecedented details about the internal structure of the Great Pyramid of Giza. The so-called Big Void inside the Pyramid is now measured at 40 meters in length. Its contents remain a profound mystery.
ScanPyramids, as the project is called, is a cross-disciplinary multinational archeological mission that uses state-of-the-art, non-destructive methods to scan various monuments for hidden cavities, chambers, or structures. This is achieved by using infra-red thermography and muons tomography.
Muon tomography essentially uses cosmic ray muons to produce three-dimensional images of volumes using information stored in the Coulomb scattering of the muons. Muons can penetrate much more deeply than x-rays, reason why experts use muon tomography to image through much thicker material than x-ray based tomography...
In 2016, the devices from the ScanPyramids project revealed the existence of a cavity situated behind the chevrons of the north face, but without being able to determine its exact architectural shape...
The Mysterious void is located just above the Grand Gallery, no more than 15 meters above it. Its minimum length has been reestimated thanks to the new scans to 40 meters in one single section. Its slope, however, remains debatable.
The new scans saw experts install new devices inside the Grand Gallery to observe the "Big Void" from several angles. Nagoya University placed several devices along the Grand Gallery. Other devices were installed in the King’s Chamber and the relieving chambers above it.

What have lasagnas got to do with it?
I have to get one every five years, because of my family history.
Either that, or Colonel Maybourne running rigged, high-stakes poker game.
Oooh, nice!
If they find a bunch of 1940s era broken whiskey bottles in the Great Pyramid it would be interesting this time.
Ballot boxes for the 2022 election will be found inside.
Thousands of long dead Egyptians voting for Dems.
Or tell the Texas-exes there is an alumni living there!
I have moved all over the world and never contacted them but they always find me and send begging letters.
It would make sense to have parts of it be hollow. I would think that would save a ton of labor (or many thousand tons.)
Bwaa!
Maybe it was LeeLoo's storage room.
Chuckle of the day.
You could have made the right choice and been a Aggie.
I shouldn’t start anything should I? One of the truest friends I ever had graduated from Texas so there is that. We lost a great man with his passing.
Dr. Gene Scott was right!!!
(Actually, I have no idea, but I just wanted to say that. The old coot was kind of fun to watch late at night.)
The great Dr. Gene Scott, from whom the expression “great Scott” derives.
Okay, no, I can’t back that up...

“Dr. Gene Scott was right!!!”
“Get on the phone!!!”
That’s what Tina Turner wants to know.
