Coffrey Research Project SAR scans detect tunnels under Giza and Hawara. Coffrey Research Project uses synthetic aperture radar (SAR) technology Their findings show tunnels criss-crossing the Giza plateau Pillars extending over a mile from the base of Khafre's pyramid with spiral staircases

Italian and Scottish researchers using SAR imaging have detected potential megastructures beneath Giza's Khafre pyramid and Hawara site. Italian and Scottish researchers announced detection of pillar-like features beneath Khafre's pyramid. Caveat: proprietary software means findings cannot be independently peer-reviewed. Further verification by the broader scientific community is needed before conclusions can be drawn.

Key facts:

- University of Pisa and University of Strathclyde researchers use synthetic aperture radar (SAR) technology

- Their findings show potential tunnel-like structures criss-crossing the Giza plateau

- Pillars and other features detected extending from the base of Khafre's pyramid

- At Hawara: potential underground network covering an area similar to Petri's excavated ruins

- 3D visualizations may not be to scale and are preliminary reconstructions

- Announced March 15-16, 2025 at Cosmic Summit 2025
