17 Egyptian Pyramids Discovered Using Infra-Red Satellite Images

The Daily Mail:

A satellite survey of Egypt has uncovered lost treasures including 17 pyramids and more than 1,000 tombs.

Three thousand ancient settlements have also been located by scientists who studied infrared images which allowed them to see underground buildings.

Astounded researchers on the ground have already confirmed that two of the pyramids exist - and they believe there are thousands more unknown sites in the region.

The website of Egypt’s National Democratic Party (NDP), the ruling party of Hosni Mubarak, as altered by hackers following Mubarak’s resignation. The message reads (loosely translated via Google Chrome):

O safe from Egypt 
Keep our country and to our beloved Egypt, and all enemies of evils … I love you Egypt

If anyone can provide a better translation, please let us know and we’ll update this post accordingly.

Here’s a better translation:

Be peaceful, Egypt (or Be safe, Egypt)

Protect our country and beloved Egypt from all enemies and evils … I love you, Egypt.
