  • The Mars Pentad Time Pyramids the Quantum Space Time Fractal Harmonic Codex the Pentagonal Pyramid
    The Mars Pentad Time Pyramids The Quantum Space Time Fractal Harmonic Codex The Pentagonal Pyramid Abstract: Early in this author’s labors while attempting to create the original Mars Pentad Time Pyramids document and pyramid drawings, a failure was experienced trying to develop a pentagonal pyramid with some form of tetrahedral geometry. This pentagonal pyramid is now approached again and refined to this tetrahedral criteria, creating tetrahedral angles in the pentagonal pyramid, and pentagonal [54] degree angles in the pentagon base for the pyramid. In the process another fine pentagonal pyramid was developed with pure pentagonal geometries using the value for ancient Egyptian Pyramid Pi = [22 / 7] = [aPi]. Also used is standard modern Pi and modern Phi in one of the two pyramids shown. Introduction: Achieved are two Pentagonal Pyramids: One creates tetrahedral angle [54 .735~] in the Side Angle {not the Side Face Angle}, using a novel height of the value of tetrahedral angle [19 .47122061] / by [5], and then the reverse tetrahedral angle is accomplished with the same tetrahedral [19 .47122061] angle value as the height, but “Harmonic Codexed” to [1 .947122061]! This achievement of using the second height mentioned, proves aspects of the Quantum Space Time Fractal Harmonic Codex. Also used is Height = [2], which replicates the [36] and [54] degree angles in the pentagon base to the Side Angles of the Pentagonal Pyramid. I have come to understand that there is not a “perfect” pentagonal pyramid. No matter what mathematical constants or geometry values used, there will be a slight factor of error inherent in the designs trying to attain tetrahedra.
