Beneath Sforza Castle in Milan, researchers have discovered a series of secret tunnels—passageways once sketched by the Renaissance artist and scientist Leonardo da Vinci and traversed by a widower sick with grief.
The tunnels were discovered by experts from the Polytechnic University of Milan, who used ground-penetrating radar and laser scanners to map the 15th-century stronghold’s subterranean structures. The imaging revealed cavities and passageways positioned just a foot or two below the ground.

I am a simple man. I see GPR; I upvote.
You’re a penetration enthusiast?
Haha, yep. In grad school my wingman would introduce me at the student pub like this:
Wingman: “This is my buddy Troy. He studies penetration.”
“Oh really? How deep do you penetrate?”
Me, as straightfaced as possible: “Depends on the frequency, but usually a few metres.”
Didn’t work as well as offering to show them my six inch telescope (and then taking them moongazing), but still hilarious.
Haha!
Um, excuse me, the tunnels were discovered by Leonardo DiVinci. We just took this long to confirm his findings.
