Sweet..but anything that they find, the public won't hear about, much less see.....unless they post it live on youtube first. lol.
I can't wait to find out.

[Ace Rimmer]

Awesome..but with that idiot Dr Zahi HawASS involved I don't hold out alot of hope, because if there is something to be found, he will get to it first.

[Sagittarii]

if hawass is involved don't expect many answers only more questions.

my thoughts exactly as i read his name in the article.

that idiot Dr Zahi HawASS

Dr. Hawass is not idiot. He knows very well how to do his job of forging history.

Yes brother you are right about that, he does that job extremely well.

Well, ZH will definitely spout the party line and cover up anything of importance. But the secondary reason for not rocking the boat is the tourism $$$. This is big business in Egypt! The primary reason for not rocking the boat is so that ZH will not look too foolish in front of the cameras. My rants about this genius would fill too many pages.

Me too. On his Searching for Mummies show..or as he says..'"show me the mummy" ..one of his students asked about Aliens, Alien intervention or help...He really blew a gasket on that question, but the man is seriously unbalanced anyway, he has some major anger management issues. I can only watch a few minutes at a time of his show, usually done while channel surfing during commercials.

Maybe the robots will find robots behind the door, and can relate, or maybe they will be destroyed by transformers, when they get tot he other side. Why did the robot cross the tunnel. To get to the openign in the great pyramid, and see what is their!
Really I too believe that as long as ZH is involved, anything of real importance will be kept secret, and not allowed to be revealed anyway. personally I think that the reason why he is always such a butt head is that too many times there has been much found that totally disproves his and other mainstream egyptologist's theories, that he is pissed that he can hardly find anything that can prove his theory or theirs at all! Most everything in Egypt that is made from the pharoahs, is nothing on the scale of the great pyramid, or the sphinx, and not one human on this earth has been able to duplicate anything of the sort. The other pyramids of the Americas, were not done by the locals either, they all state they were done by the Gods, or at least the Gods instructed and assisted on building them, so what would a God have chambers built into the pyramids like this for? I don't know, maybe Satan made them do it, or Bal, or Bel, or Zahi Hawass, or maybe they had to put them in to keep the building structurally sound, the only way to find out, is get ZH out of there, and put some people in with some ethics, and real moral stature to actually tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth!

Any news about opening these doors.I am waiting 17 years and still nothing!

[lunarwing]

I don't hold out any hope of anything useful coming out of Egypt while Zawhass is in charge of the Ministry of Antiquities. He is not an idiot... because he is very good at controling the situation. He is however a $#@&*^% for how he goes about it.

[romanxxl]

Any news from Giza?When robot will open second doors.Why ancient aliens series guys newer come back to this topic...

[Bob137]

Whjy I haven't been back, is because we are still waiting for them to open them.

Given the turmoil in Egypt, I would imagine some of these projects are on hold until they know who is in charge. Tourism might not be too affected, but research probably has ground to a standstill.

I am also looking for some news on what has been found, but given what has happened it probably won't be explored until next year or so.

[Bob137]

So is Zari Hawass still in charge, or is he out?

[Moon]

So is Zari Hawass still in charge, or is he out?

He was out, and then he was back in. Last I have heard he is still in charge after they threw out his jail sentence and reinstated his old title back.

According to Wackypedia:

On April 17, 2011, Hawass was sentenced to jail for one year for refusing to obey a court ruling relating to a contract for the gift shop at the Egyptian Museum to a company with links to Hawass. The ruling was appealed and the sentence was suspended pending appeal. On April 18, 2011, the National Council of Egypt’s Administrative Court issued a decree stopping the court ruling, specifying that he would not serve any jail time, and would remain in his position as Minister of Antiquities.

[Bob137]

That Sucks! Oh well! We just have to wait for this pharoah to go!

[Moon]

That Sucks! Oh well! We just have to wait for this pharoah to go!

That was April, so anything can happen since the government in Egypt is still in transition.

[mytilus]

The doctore may have protecting from jailgoing based on international hidden connections in the work of keep going strong to not let a new doctore screw things up by chanse and dropping top secret details out that would make all people of the whole world going bananas and at once stop working and run out on the streets smashing windows and forget to obey the police and the rulers of countrys, then the world going chaos and become the stone age again.

BTW, with nowadays super high tech equipment it must had been done a full scan by radar or sound to find out exactly everything of hidden rooms in the pyramid.

Antother thoughth is, why all focus on the one pyramid when there are an almost as big pyramid beside and some sligthly smaller? Is there something unique outstanding that makes the Khufu pyramid different level of interesting compared to all others?

[romanxxl]

Scientists have technology and x rays to check what is inside pyramide of cheops and other pyramids.why they never publish research on it.pyramids belong to all humanity not to egyptian goverment!

That would more than likely be because the Great Pyramid is believed to be much older than the smaller ones, and also due to ground penetrating radar, that there is numeorus chambers underneath, that may lead to a great hall of records, or something of the sort.

Finally some good news!

I do hope they use his inventions and get inside the pyramid. The political climate is still quite iffy for anything to get done in a while. But at least the technology for doing so is getting better.

Hi Folks,Don here.Technology can unlock the secrets but you still need a reallly big piece of machinery to get Zawi Hawass' ass out of the way.Don out.........................

They fired him, then arrested him and threatened him with prison but he is now back in charge. Let's face it we will never rid of him.

[lamplight]

hi folks..

i just watched a prerecorded special that many of youve all seen.. national geographic special and they showed them drilling through the first door and discovering the second. . this was awesome for me to watch as i just finished the orion mystery (book).. i wasnt sure the age of the special so i thought id checkin here with you all: is there any further development? nobody is through the second door yet? i was thinking it odd that the second door is so ancient and cracked while the first is smooth..

the special found what appears a worksite, barracks, bakeries etc.. seems clearly evidence of a work force but i dont trust anyones guesstimates on size of workforce.. i still dont believe all those blocks used on the giza pyramis (what 2.1 tons each?) were carved with primitive tools... did you see how smooth the walls of the shaft was that they sent the robot down?!! no way in hell that was done with primitive tools..

also funny thing i dont know if any of you who saw the show noticed: they directly said in the show the egyptians had no pulleys or wheel at this time, then later in the show they played a little animation to show how to heavy stones that sealed the pyramid upon completion, and the demonstration shows us the large stones lowered into place by.... a pulley system hahahahahhahaha ..

its on netflix streaming if any of you have that.

thaNKS,
Matt

I've seen that show a few times now.
My feeling is, if there was anything to be found it has already been found and hidden away. "They" aren't going to go anywhere or look in any place for the first time in a venue like that. It will have been carefully staged and reveal next to nothing, if anything at all. If evidence of any sort is found that contradicts the mainstream version of our past, it will be withheld.

I am completely convinced that whoever build the ancient stone structures that are all over the world are the product of some technology we can't figure out, lost knowledge.

[lamplight]

you know the same thing went through my mind! was this staged? completely possible.

[varg]

Maybe this is a wrong topic, if so, sorry in advance.
But as the topic sounds. Are there any new findings that relates to the mysterious questions of Egypt?

Will there be any more robots exploring the Pyramid of Khufu before I die? (I'm 34).
All the Gods that ruled in Egypt before, how many have been found? Did they really find the mummy of Osiris?

I've done some research but it's hard to find good sources.
Hope for some juicy response!

I merged this thread with the ongoing topic of the robot in the pyramid. Not much news has been generated as Egypt is still going through some political turmoil.

I think the best place to look is the Egypt and Pyramid forum as we put updates here when stuff happens. I also hope there is more exploration in my lifetime as well.

[varg]

Thanks for your reply, good merge.

Well, my search in based on looking in many forums, You-Tube and other sites that relates to the subject.

But I believe that those people who knows don't speak.
If there will be any official major findings I could read it everywhere.

Regards

[hollow27]

I've been really disappointed by the analysis and availability of video/pictures from the latest robot excursion too. I understand that Egypt is a volatile area to be in at the moment, but that doesn't appease the eager mind. Haha. The pictures that we've been shown are supposed to be that of graffiti discovered on the other side of the block barring the shaft:







I would love to see more, but that's all I've seen released.

For a really good read on the potential reasoning behind these "air shafts", along with the Great Pyramid itself, check out The Giza Power Plant by Christopher Dunn. It's a really good read.

[Moon]

For now we have to wait on all of that. I am also hoping to learn more of that graffiti which was found in the Great Pyramid.

I have read Chris Dunn's work and he is one of the few researchers who really knows his stuff.

[lamplight]

this is great didn't know about this latest bit.. however.. is it me or does this graffiti seem awfully primitive by Egyptian standards? that makes me think it's a)fake or b) insignificant doodling.. (ie actual graffiti by a worker? )

I guess is case a) investigation iss a waste of time and b) investigation might reveal some small thing.. it's peculiar that's for sure...
