[geometry] earth, moon, pyramid


1 Draw the Earth's circumference and superimpose the base of The Great Pyramid on it, so that the diameter of the earth is also the base of the pyramid.

2 Draw the moon in proportion to the Earth and 'rest it on top' of the Earth.

3 Rule a square around the Earth's circumference.

4 Create a third larger circle around the Earth, which is 'the circle squared'.

5 Connect the ends of the base line to the centre of the moon. This new shape is the exact shape of The Great Pyramid, in exact proportion.

6 Place a triangle next to the moon, the same height and leading out to the end of the 'earth enclosing square'. It's the classic 3-4-5 triangle.

The Great Pyramid is at the geographical centre of the Earth, if the total area of land mass is calculated.

  1. Since the land mass is scattered on the surface of a globe, its centre is somewhere below the surface. Moreover, the map might well refer to land area rather than mass; it might even refer to area projected onto a plane. It almost certainly doesn't include consideration of sea level when the pyramid was built. All-in-all, you can safely reject this proposition, though why one would bother with such logical arguments when the proposition is evident lunacy, I'm not sure.
