This transcript captures a conference presentation detailing the **application of space-based synthetic aperture radar (SAR) technology to investigate the internal structures of the Giza pyramids, particularly Khafre's pyramid.** The speakers, Armando Mei, Filippo Biondi, and Corrado Malanga, describe their innovative method of **transforming electromagnetic signals into sonic vibrations** to "see" beneath the surface, revealing previously unknown chambers and features. They present **tomographic images** generated using this technique, contrasting their findings with conventional archaeological understandings and the limitations of muon spectroscopy. Furthermore, they discuss **potential connections between these subterranean structures and ancient myths, as well as their possible functions**, suggesting the pyramids may have served purposes beyond traditional tombs.
