Egyptian pyramids to find the missing photos via satellite
Survey revealed a new satellite for several buildings in the ancient Egypt of which 17 pyramid. It was detected about 1000 and 3000 Colony Cemetery
D. Sarah Barcak pointing to the sites of the Egyptian pyramids, the lost satellite images
Old by infra-red images show the buildings buried under the ground. And confirmed the initial exploration of some discoveries, including two of the pyramids is not known in advance. D says. Sarah Barcak: "The disclosure of the pyramid is the dream of everyone working in the field of archeology."
Led Barcak team archaeological research in space technology in the laboratory is sponsored by the Agency for Research Space Administration (NASA) in Birmingham, Alabama, and says it is amazed that I discovered she and her team. She adds: "We did this extensively for over a year and you see information that they gather to have but a moment of surprise was when I looked at what we found could not believe that we can determine such a number of sites in Egypt. "The team analyzed the images satellites flying at an altitude of 700 km above the ground and equipped with cameras so powerful that they can identify anything on the surface of the ground at least a radius of about meters. and use infrared imaging to determine the different materials under the surface of the earth. The Egyptians built the ancient houses and buildings of other brick is Mufkhor made of mud, which is more dense than the soil surrounding it, and so you can see the forms of houses, temples and cemeteries. says Dr.. Barcak: "This shows us how easy it is to underestimate the value of the size and extent of human settlements in the past." U.S. researcher believes that there are more effects that can be discovered. She adds: "This is just the sites near the surface. There are many thousands of sites that bury the Nile silt. This is just the beginning for this kind of effort. "And the camera tracked the BBC d. Barcak in her "exciting" when I traveled to Egypt to see that the excavation would support reveals a technology that you use. In the documentary, told the BBC, entitled (Egyptian cities lost) visit to the team area of Saqqara, where authorities were not interested at first discoveries of the researcher. But, after d told them. Barcak she saw pyramids have engaged in exploratory drilling, and now believe he is one of the most important archaeological sites in Egypt. But d. Barcak says that "the most exciting moments was to visit the excavation sites of Tanis."
She adds: "We have found the old house dates back to 3000 years was revealed by satellite images and match the form of a true home with the images in full. This was to test the efficacy of the technology. "Among other things, plans the Egyptian authorities to use the technology to protect the effects of the country in the future. During the last revolution enables terrorists from entering some of the known archaeological sites. Says researcher:" We can use photos to know that the graves looted in the period of time specific and we can inform the Interpol to monitor the effects of stolen since that time, which may be offered for sale. "and hopes that the new technology to be a way to help youth interest in science and a great help to archaeologists around the world.
