Mysterious Chambers Lined With Mica Found at Teotihuacan -- Proof of Ancient Spaceflight?

Really interesting, Thanks for this.

Mica is a phyllosilicate mineral.

There are large deposits of Mica here in Idaho. We find it in our own gardens. It's beautiful, like opal or abalone and catches and reflects light like little diamonds in the dirt.Has been used in jewelry and decorative arts since time immemorial, especially in lanterns and as lampshades because of the way it takes a small light source and makes it appear larger and brighter.

The only significance of mica on a ceiling is that it indicates the room was used for a purpose that required sight, so it was illuminated.

Don't want to link but if you go to google images and type mica lantern or mica lamp even mica ceiling (there's one) you will recognize these. Nice that it's heat resistant, too.

Evidence of space flight technology? That writer doesn't get out much....

IMO, no coincidence at all.

I once had a lantern with large sheets of nearly clear mica for the globe. What was nice about it was that unlike glass, it didn't break if the lantern fell over.
