Elon Musk claims that "Aliens built the pyramids", Egypt denies and invites him
Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has tweeted on Friday that "Aliens built the pyramids obv" (obv = obviously). The tweet has been shared widely on Twitter and received over 500,000 likes.
The Minister of International Co-operation of Egypt Rania al-Mashat has responded to the claim and denied that they were built by aliens. She said that "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".
At a later point, Elon Musk linked a BBC History site that provides information about the history of the workers that built the pyramids.
