Therefore, like there's one narrative, but it's usually constructed based on what we know.

And we're learning all the time.

And we forget all the time.

And now we're like, what did you do?

They were definitely assholes.

That was such an amazing list.

Assholes.

When I first heard about the Library of Alexandria, that was heartbroken.

I was like, can you even imagine what was lost?

So long before I got into science, like one of the first places I actually encountered astronomy was like reading about the Orion mystery when I was like in fifth grade.

And I like I was like got obsessed with it for a little while about like whether the chambers and the pyramids were actually aligned with the stars and stuff.

And like like how did they possibly do that?

It was it was kind of crazy.

I mean, that's a phenomenal piece of architecture.

Yeah.

Yeah.

No, I mean, it's incredibly creative, and if it's testable, and there's ways to validate that that could work, that would be... Well, the problem is you'd have to do it at scale.

Well, you could look for traces of whatever chemistry he's talking about on the pyramid walls, and it would be possible to experimentally verify whether gamma rays could do that.

I don't suspect that they could, but...

But like there's pieces of it like this is how science works.
