Scientist’s intriguing new theory on Great Pyramid — and how it could be used to communicate with the cosmos
An Iranian scientist, Jalal Jafari, has proposed a new theory suggesting that the Great Pyramid of Khufu may have served as a celestial transmitter for communication with extraterrestrials. Jafari argues that the pyramid's precise coordinates align closely with the speed of light, indicating a potential encoded system for sharing information about Earth's position in the cosmos. While this theory is still in its early stages and requires further research, it challenges traditional views of the pyramids as mere tombs.
