Where does it lead to?
— a breathtaking revelation, especially given the fact that we've been scanning the 4,500-year-old structure with infrared rays since 2015.this week, the discovery made by the international research project Scan Pyramids could shed light on how the 479-foot-tall pyramid was constructed, and why the corridor is flanked by a massive limestone structure.
The corridor is only roughly 23 feet away from the pyramid's main entrance, which is crowded by tourists around the clock."We're going to continue our scanning so we will see what we can do... to figure out what we can find out beneath it, or just by the end of this corridor,"Pretty Stoned Researchers believe the corridor may have been built to redistribute the pyramid's weight around the main entrance. It was discovered using a tiny endoscope, using cosmic-ray radiography.
This latest discovery could potentially force us to reevaluate what we know about how the giant structure many thousands of years ago — something that scientists still don't fully agree on, and a fascinating puzzle given its immense size and the ancient technology its builders had to rely on.
