Section-4: Great pyramid's shafts and entry passage, and its spherical domain

Based on the trigonometric analysis and the survey data of both Petrie6 and Gantenbrink13, it is found that the tilt of the northern and shorthorn shafts of the upper room is 32.47° and 45°, respectively, as shown in figure-7. The northern shaft is directed towards the northern point Yn, and the southern shaft is directed towards the point L2 of the minimum obliquity angle. It means that the pyramid's designer have coded the locations of these important astronomical points that are located at its spherical domain by the tilts of these shafts. The first is the point of the North Pole "Yn" and the second is the point L2 that identifies the location of the Sun at noon of the winter solstice during the year of the minimum obliquity angle. As shown in figure-7, these two shafts meet at the point "u" that is located at 15.5m below the line h-h and that has a horizontal distance from the line A-A equal to 11.27m.

Moreover, the following will show the design process of the two shafts in the middle room. In figure-7, point "n" and point "s" are located on the horizon line h-h and represent the projections of the two centers Pn and Ps of the two extreme circular planes of the observed diurnal motion of the sun at the time of erecting the pyramid, respectively. Taking into consideration that the tilt of the line Pn-Ps is 30°, each of point n and s is then located about 57.60m from the pyramid's center. Further, if a horizontal line is being drawn from the point Ps, it intersects with the azimuth A-A at point m that identifies the level of Ps at 33.25m below the horizon level h-h. Then, the line m-Yn identifies the direction of the northern shaft that has a tilt equals 39.11°. This shaft ends at the intersection point with the line Pn-n. The southern shaft is a mirror of the northern shaft and ends when it meets the extension of the line Ps-s. The designer have set the tilts of the two northern shafts of the upper and middle rooms to intersect at the exact position of the point Yn on the pyramid's spherical domain, at 162.88m from the pyramid's center.

Concerning the pyramid's entrance, it is found that the entry-passage of the great pyramid starts its slop of 26.56° from the horizon level h-h. It starts from the northern point of intersection between the horizon line h-h and the pyramid's spherical domain. The line path of this entry-passage meets the azimuth A-A at the point "o," which is located at 81.42m below the horizon line h-h. The entry passage of the great pyramid ends its inclination when it meets the line P3-P4; after that intersection, it continues horizontally.

The value of the tilt of the pyramid's entry passage belongs to one of the most important astronomical file on the pyramids' design philosophy. The author will publish it in another study. Identifying that tilt is based on linking two frames of references: the frame of reference of the pyramid's spherical domain and the frame of reference of the spherical domain of our solar system. Its mathematical equation matches to some extent the relativistic equation that has been formulated by Albert Einstein in his great and remarkable work the titled "Special Theory of Relativity."

What have been said so far indicates that the pyramid's designer never put any piece of stone in his architectonic masterpiece without coding such scientific information. He has coded his knowledge for us, the settlers of the solar system or the Cs₂₄₊₄ that he was calling it the "Be-n" system, in order to let us observe his treasures that are made only from pieces of stones. He said the following message in a papyri that had been translated into Arabic verses during the early Muslim era and then translated into English by the author:

I am the builder of all pyramid-es of Egypt-y

They are my past and, for last, is my property

I left in them all my sacred knowledge and my holy ideology

That will resist the evils until a moment in the path of eternity

But, the hidden pearly treasures of my majesty,

Will not resist the ill-desire for robbery

I thought I may die and my sciences may disappear confidentially,

Thus, I coded them to be then known thoughtfully

My codes will break by the datum line of the path of eternity,

Which I did quantify astronomically

Eight, nine, two, four, and seventy,

After the radius of the hundred thousand safely

And, then the portion of ninety

Will throw-down the stones of my horizons until endlessly

Think over the stones that I did cut in deeply

They remain, I die, and then they will fall-down completely.

The Designer of Giza Pyramids 3055 BC
