I’ve posted couple times to alert readers to peer-reviewed journal articles by astronomers interested in researching the Great Pyramid’s alignment with the stars. (previous posts are located here and here). I came across another article on the subject written in 2003 in an open-access journal that focuses on the history of science. The article is very technical to my taste (lots of equations and weird symbols astronomers use). I post it specifically to inform (again) ancient astronaut theorists (and the people who produce the Fantasy Channel’s Ancient Aliens nonsense) that it is incorrect to say that mainstream scientists have not looked into this and found no explanation. As this article also shows, there is no “amazing precision” to the alignment either. It can all be done with naked eye astronomy.
Again, the Egyptians earn our respect for their genius, and aliens are not needed.
Check out this web site.It gives more info on how to build a pyramid with one basic tool.(http://www.crichtonmiller.com/index.html)
thanks – I’ll check it out.
There is a mistake in the link to the last article that you give. The “http” part repeated twice in the internet address, so when you click on the link you get a message that Internet link could not be opened. I corrected it by hand and then it opened.
thanks – I will look this up.
If anyone is interested in how the cross symbol can relate to the structure of the human body, look up “laminin protein”…
