Pyramids. The distinct shape, clean vertices, and inherent coolness have fascinated humanity since the Egyptians. Some sci-fi writers like to stick modern or futuristic-looking pyramids into their works to combine old and new in a distinctive yet recognisable manner. The result is the future pyramid, a building in the style of ancient Egypt but using modern or yet-to-be-invented materials and construction methods. The primary reason for these is that they look impressive. A pyramid is a good shape for a space-frame building, if you've got enough room for a wide building. But how many of the examples use that as justification? Compare Sinister Geometry and Magitek. |

StarCraft: The main Protoss building, the Nexus, is a pyramid, as are many of the types of Xel'naga Temple seen throughout the series. Arcturus Mengsk's imperial palace, as seen in his inauguration in StarCraft and throughout Heart of the Swarm, is a giant pyramid, which stands out very distinctly against Augustgrad's mostly traditional skyline. |

Might and Magic: In 'III, the Pyramids are a network of underground dungeons that are actually high-tech Ancient facilities, defended by robots and keeping the Science Fantasy secrets of Terra from the surface population. The Tomb of VARN in VI is (at least part of) a long-landed and abandoned spacecraft. It must have been immensely tough, considering it not only survived the long voyage through the void, but also the event that, centuries after the landing, turned the fertile landing zone into a blasted desert. In a minor twist, you have to go deep into the pyramid before any actually futuristic elements are seen (well, visibly futuristic. The jackalheaded guards are probably robots, but they don't look the part). |

In the Vorkosigan Saga novel Cryoburn, one of the largest cryogenic companies on the planet Kibou-daini is NewEgypt. Their cryo-storage facilities (where they keep the frozen bodies of people who were hoping to be revived, when there's a cure for whatever was killing them) are all in pyramid shaped buildings, and all their corporate branding follows an Egyptian theme. They've trademarked the entire historical era, to block imitators. | |

Stargate SG-1 extends this to the Goa'uld as a whole: they may be impersonating a Greek, Babylonian or even Japanese deity but the snake will still use pyramid-shaped spaceships, space stations, evil lairs...

In Over the Edge, Mad architect Jean-Claude D'Aubainne built the Al-Amarja airport building in the shape of a cone ... balanced on its point. It's the first sight immigrants see, so it has to be one of the most intimidating buildings on the island. It's also a total con. The elevators operate in reverse, and the actual building is underground. The pyramid is an empty shell. | |

An early script for Alien had the crew finding the aliens in a H. R. Giger designed "Egg Silo" but this was cut for budget reasons. A few pyramids are seen on the Predator homeworld in Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem as a nod to this. | |

Necron monoliths in Warhammer 40,000. Although pyramids in 40k are mainly associated with Necrons, they also appear in some Eldar artwork (for example the 5th edition rulebook's picture of the inside of a Craftworld has a few pyramidal structures). Also Prospero, the now-destroyed homeworld of the Thousand Sons legion of Space Marines, was host to a futuristic Egyptian style of architecture, with many hi-tech pyramid buildings (especially in the world's capital, Tizca). Given the overtly Egyptian stylings of the Thousand Sons themselves, this is not a surprise. |
