A hidden burial chamber .. Cosmic ray technology reveals the secrets of the Great Pyramid

Using a new, ultra-strong cosmic ray technology, the identities of two mysterious voids inside the Great Pyramid of Giza can be revealed. The largest of the two spaces is located just above the Great Portico, a passageway that leads to what would have been the chamber of Pharaoh Khufu, according to earlier attempts to discover the pyramid.

Previous excavations have also revealed a second, much smaller void, just behind the north face of the pyramid. And between 2015 and 2017, the “Scan Pyramids” project conducted a survey of the pyramid by analyzing muons, which are elementary subatomic particles similar to the electron, and they come to us through cosmic rays, which constantly hit the Earth billions of times per hour, to discover any voids. Those processes revealed both voids that were discovered in 2017.
Now, a new team plans to use this technology in the Great Pyramid again, but this time with a more powerful system that analyzes muons that penetrate objects and create clear images on film in greater detail.
“We plan to place a telescope system around the pyramid that has a sensitivity of 100 times greater than the equipment previously used to perform the same experiment,” the team wrote in a paper. Since the proposed reagents are too large, they cannot be placed inside the pyramid, so we plan to place them outside and move them along the base. In this way, we can collect muons from all angles in order to build and analyze the required data set.”

The researchers pointed out that the reagents that will be used are very sensitive, and may even reveal the presence of artifacts inside the spaces. "If the space is filled with materials such as pottery, metal, stone or wood, we should be able to distinguish these materials from the outside," said Alan Bruce, a scientist at Fermi National Laboratory and one of the researchers.
The team obtained approval from the Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities to conduct the excavations, but they still need to raise funds to build the equipment and place it next to the Great Pyramid. "We are looking for sponsors for the entire project," Bruce said. Once we get the full funding, we think it will take about two years to build the detectors
