The three pyramids of Giza are a perfect reproduction of the three stars on the orion's belt (shown below) Like the pyramids, the three stars of orion are not perfectly aligned, the smallest of them is slightly offset east. Their orientation to the Nile recreates orion's orientation to the milky way. The layout of the pyramids, and their relative sizes were a deliberate design plan and not the result of Kings/Pharaohs egos.
The pyramids were much more than just tombs; they were nothing less than a replica of heaven on earth. With astronomical precision, the pyramids were created to serve as pharaohs gateway to the stars.
Orion
Orion is a prominent constellation located on the celestial equator and visible throughout the world. It is one of the most conspicuous and recognisable constellations in the night sky. It was named after Orion, a hunter in Greek mythology. Its brightest stars are Rigel (Beta Orionis) and Betelgeuse (Alpha Orionis), a blue-white and a red supergiant. Many of the other brighter stars in the constellation are hot, blue supergiant stars. The three stars in the middle of the constellation form a unique asterism known as Orion's belt. The Orion Nebula is located south of Orion's belt.
