A few things the article didn't mention which i found interesting in my studies of the pyramids is the following:
- the pyramids were covered with a smooth rock like a marble stone so when the sun shined on it they looked like giant mirrors. They would reflect the
sunlight and could be seen from 100 miles away in the mountains of israel and were clearly visible from space. Those rocks were removed by the arabs
at some point and used on the temples...so we see the old, worn, rock face of the pyramids...but back when they were built, they were shiny and
bright. Very interesting.
-The pyramids run across the exact line of the equator, marking the center of the Earth.
-They were built with "balls" between the blocks, which is what scientists used to build modern sky scrapers and bridges. The balls prevent the
stones from cracking with temperature and weather changes and allow them to move when they expand and contract and even to shift with earthquakes. We
just started applying that technology to our structures in the 20th century!
-each block is cut to 1/100th of an inch leaving just enough room for the glue. Modern machines do not make perfect right angle cuts to that degree of
an inch without slight error or imperfections. The pyramids have none, they are perfect.
-even crazier is the inside of the pyramid, it always stays a certain temperature (I forget the exact temp, something like 68 degrees) with no Air
conditioning in a hot desert, it's still cool and comfortable in the pyramid. Also one of the chambers has a tiny hole that leads all the way to the
outiside edge of the wall and at the exact winter solstace, the northern star, the brightest star in the sky lines up with that hole and illuminates
the entire room.
The egyptians DID NOT build these structures. Somebody with a higher knowledge of our planet and solar system did.
