"Egypt is preparing to use the latest technology to solve a 4,500-year-old riddle. A robot is to be sent up two narrow shafts in the Great Pyramid in Giza to discover whether a secret burial chamber contains the real tomb of the pharoah Cheops, also known as Khufu. The chief Egyptian archeologist, Zahi Hawass, is to inspect the robot designed by Singapore scientists later this week". See the full article for more.
