Secrets Beneath Giza: The Hidden Shafts and Subterranean Chambers

Join Alex and Dr. Chen as they deconstruct the explosive claims from the March 15, 2025 press conference that has shaken the archaeological and physics communities. An Italian-Scottish research team, led by Professors Corrado Malanga and Filippo Biondi, claims to have identified a massive underground complex beneath the Pyramid of Khafre using a novel combination of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and seismic interferometry,.In this episode of The Physics of History, we move beyond the headlines to analyze the raw data and the physical feasibility of these reported structures. The team’s tomographic scans allegedly reveal eight vertical, hollow pillars plunging 648 meters into the bedrock—a depth exceeding the height of the Shanghai Tower,. We investigate the structural physics required to maintain such voids against immense lithostatic pressure and examine the mysterious "spiral" features lining the shaft walls.
