EGYPT has invited Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk to visit the country’s famous pyramids and see for himself that they were not built by aliens. Musk had recently shared a tweet that seemed to support conspiracy theorists who claim that the pyramids of Egypt were built by alien life forms. “Aliens built the pyramids obv,” the billionaire entrepreneur wrote on Twitter recently. It’s not clear if Musk was joking or serious — but the 49-year-old has a well-known penchant for sharing wild, sometimes erratic and often ambiguous tweets. Musk’s tweet has more than 86,000 “retweets” and comments since being shared three days ago. It has also got him an invitation to Egypt. Egypt’s Minister of International Cooperation, Rania A Al Mashat, tweeted Musk and extended an invitation to the country. She asked Musk to visit the tombs of the builders who constructed the ancient structures. “I follow your work with a lot of admiration. I invite you & Space X to explore the writings about how the pyramids were built and also to check out the tombs of the pyramid builders. Mr. Musk, we are waiting for you,” she wrote. (SD-Agencies) |
