I hope someone prints out this image and stores it somewhere, that way in 500 years, after we've blasted each other back into the stone age, some poor guy is going to discover this image and be like Oh crap! UFOs built the pyramids!

We were allies with the Egyptians so anything was possible at the time, I think it was the 80's when this was taken.
