Come to think of it, no one would last very long being trapped in a glass pyramid under the blazing desert sun.
One thought on “BDA #161: The house of death”
That’s IF it’s a glass pyramid.
Other transparent materials are available.
Diamond, for example is transparent to infra-red and reflects ultra-violet, so the interior of a pyramid made of diamond wouldn’t be any hotter than its surroundings, but would appear slightly bluer. Just like the shown pyramid.
Not that it’d make much sense in a house of death to make a pyramid out of a material that reduces the naturally-occurring death rays.
