The position of the North Pole moves over time and the pyramid was exactly aligned at one time.Ĭenter of Land Mass: The Great Pyramid is located at the center of the land mass of the earth. – Īligned True North: The Great Pyramid is the most accurately aligned structure in existence and faces true north with only 3/60th of a degree of error. How these blocks were transported and assembled into the pyramid is still a mystery. Appropriately, the ancient Egyptians called the Great Pyramid “ Ikhet“, meaning the “ Glorious Light“. It has been calculated that the original pyramid with its casing stones would act like gigantic mirrors and reflect light so powerful that it would be visible from the moon as a shining star on earth. They are no longer present being used by Arabs to build mosques after an earthquake in the 14th century loosened many of them. These casing stones reflected the sun’s light and made the pyramid shine like a jewel. It was originally covered with casing stones (made of highly polished limestone).
It is stronger than the stone and still holding up today. It has been analyzed, and its chemical composition is known, but it can’t be reproduced. The mortar used is of an unknown origin (Yes, no explanation was given). The cornerstone foundations of the pyramid have ball and socket construction capable of dealing with heat expansion and earthquakes. The outer mantle was composed of 144,000 casing stones, all of them highly polished and flat to an accuracy of 1/100th of an inch, about 100 inches thick and weighing approx.
The interior temperature is constant and equals the average temperature of the earth, 20 Degrees Celsius (68 Degrees Fahrenheit).
The base of the pyramid covers 55,000 m2 (592,000 ft 2) with each side greater than 20,000 m2 (218,000 ft2) in area. The Pyramid of Menkaure, the Pyramid of Khafre and the Great Pyramid of Khufu are precisely aligned with the Constellation of Orion.
The pyramid is estimated to have around 2,300,000 stone blocks that weigh from 2 to 30 tons each and there are even some blocks that weigh over 50 tons.
