Absolutely not. By the time these were built the old Egyptians had put together a few hundred years of experience at building pyramids. The Giza pyramids were put on a solid rocky foundation because they had found that if the ground underneath was not good the pyramid would fail. Apart from that it was conveniently across the river and slightly elevated so they could be seen easily from their capital city.

Look for stuff on the "Step Pyramid" and the "Bent Pyramid" for earlier pyramids.

It also appears that some structures were already there and quite old even then, it may be that the Sphinx was a few hundred years old when the first pyramid was built and there is a temple with very thick walls built with extremely primitive masonry which may be even older. The Sphinx was repaired and restored by another king many centuries later.

Despite their size, the pyramids are in some ways primitive. There is no sign of any kind of arch or buttress in the stonework associated with them, the Romans knew how to build these 2000 years ago. The interior chambers are corbeled, not arched, and corbeling is the most primitive way of building a stonework roof and is less strong than an arch. Anyone who can build and fly a spacecraft across umpteen light years would know about the stonework arch and buttress.

The villages the builders lived in have been found, the quarries where the stone came from have been found, half worked stone in these quarries have been found, etc etc etc. Also holes in the ground at one side of the Great Pyramid have recently been identified as part of a full scale plan laid out on the ground. (John Romer)

The pyramids were not built by slaves, not as we understand slaves. They certainly were not built by Hebrews who seem to have been in Egypt more than 2000 years after pyramids went out of fashion. The present estimate is that the largest took about 14 -17 years to build. Some cathedrals in Europe took hundreds of years to complete.

Most of the labouring unskilled work was probably done by farmers who did no farm work while the Nile river flooded their fields. They were not paid as money had not been invented, but did the work out of religious belief and the fact that they got fed while doing it. But there were probably a thousand or maybe more skilled workers who were permanently on the job.

They have been built by humans. Archaeologists have found enough clues to know they were not built by aliens, but humans. They know where and how the stones were carved out. Many pyramids also didn't work out, so a couple of the first ones more or less collapsed, or the angle was adjusted during building to prevent collapsing. The villages where the workers lived were found, with remnants of their food, their graves, etc, etc, Still no aliens there.
There are still a whole bunch of people that hope were not alone in this big and hostile universe, but so far, there are no signs of intelligent life from space as far as I know (considering humans intelligent of course), but they really are no more than conspiracy theories. Many people still need a god to live, others need aliens, or chem-trails, or whatever human minds can make up without making it in a novel, but in stead they choose to turn it in a website. It costs only a few pages of fantasy, the public that wants to believe does the rest.

The task of constructing the pyramids of Egypt seems at face value to be beyond the technology of these ancient people. Few know that there were far more pyramids built in Egypt then most people know. Around 80 pyramids were built of various sizes and types of construction. Very few were of the same very large stone structures such as the famous three at Giza. Some were poorly constructed and have deteriorated into piles of rubble that would hardly be mistaken for a pyramid while others were not completed.
.
One highly documented theory of their construction says they are actually made of an early form of concrete and the stones were cast in place rather than made of cut stones that were dragged into place.
.
Ancient Egypt was the birthplace of chemistry. The word chemistry itself refers to the ancient name that the Egyptians call their land. They called their country Kemmet (chemistry) which means "the black land" in their language it referred to the black soil that the Nile deposited every year when it flooded.

We learn every day that the ancients were more technologically advanced than was once thought.

Only the people who think the Moon landings were fake. If we don't land on the Moon now, then we must have been unable to do so in 1969 is the same kind of reasoning that says since we don't build pyramids now it must have been impossible in 2,000 BC.

I'm sure some people believe it, but they're wrong. The pyramids were built by men, using methods that are fairly well understood now.

the closest planet that could have water is 20.5 lightyears away.

even if they could travel at the speed of light (and its impossible) it would take 20 years.

i find it hard to beleive that any ship or craft carrying a bunch of humaniod lifeforms could even travel close to the speed of lgiht for 20 years. i find it hard to believe that it could even travel at a quarter of the speed of light.

it would take us almost half a million years to travel to that planet, theres no possible way aliens would have ever come to earth.

and notice how not a single CREDIBLE scientist, Patrick Geryl does not count!, believes that aliens have visted earth...ever...

i think aliens could do better. the pyramids are as useless as they are big. they are tombs where the mummified bodies of the kings are buried.

Yes, if by aliens you mean people from another race or country, The Hebrew slaves did the work.

I suppose it's indeed possible, but without concrete evidence I'm sure no one will ever really now.
