Chances of the space containing treasure or burial chambers are almost nil, said Aidan Dodson, an Egyptologist at the University of Bristol, but the discovery helps shed light on building techniques.

If Hawass knew about this "void " for years, then why the hell have we just found out about it now ?
A group of scientists has just claimed to have discovered two unknown voids or cavities within the Great Pyramid of Giza, the largest pyramid ever constructed in Egypt. Such cavities can be signs of hidden burials or rooms and as such, media outlets across the world immediately ran headlines touting this "discovery." One outlet even went so far as to proclaim that "secret rooms" had been found in the Great Pyramid.
this frustrated me no end, are they saying they never went through the second blocking stone? I never discovered whether this had been achieved or not.... Eventually Shaun said he would no longer talk about Djedi.... Frustrating!

Kewl! It may be awhile but they will at some point drill in and place a camera/robot into both. I do hope something of interest is found - I suspect something like the relieving chambers - ie rocks, dust and maybe some graffiti!
I hope I am wrong

Elon Musk needs to start "Pyramid X" for ways to open up the chambers.
We can send up the robot Djedi, but thats not good enough. I think it will turn into the Oak Island treasure fiasco when they sent down the rover that just bounced around in the corner the whole time!
Keep the Lagina Bros out of Egypt!
Do you honestly think they stopped the project and not just removed it from the public eye? Clearly, they did send cameras with drills into the shafts and know already that something is in there.
Do any of you remember the "fake" report by a reporter who was, in fact, real, about the meeting of archeologists in Egypt who wrote that one of the speakers there announced that they found something in that void and it "was not of earth"?

I wish we could take it apart and take a look at stuff, and put it back again. Too many of the stones are going to be bigger than we can move. Any drilling into the stone to cut into the void might start a war.
