Title: Noah's Ark Possibly Found? Post by: Phoenix on 2006-06-19, 04:18 A friend sent me a link to this story:
Quote On June 5th, Bible Historian and explorer Bob Cornuke led an expedition of 15 geologists, historians, archeologists, scientists and attorneys on an exhausting mission 13,300 feet above sea level to locate and document the tremendous sections of what is thought to be Noah?s Ark located in the Ararat mountain range six hours North of Tehran, Iran. It had been essentially buried beneath the preservation of glaciers until last year when Iran recorded the hottest year on record which melted some of the snowcap revealing 450 by 75-foot footprint of the ?object.?... ...Geologists took nine samples of the ark under the strict eye of a video team for analysis by the Smithsonian Institute. Over 23,000 feet of video was taken and will be released to the public. You can get your first glimpse of it on Fox News with John Kasich Saturday at 8:00pm Eastern time, according to the Cornuke team. http://www.watch.org/showart.php3?idx=7992...owsubj=1&mcat=1 (http://www.watch.org/showart.php3?idx=79928&rtn=/index.html&showsubj=1&mcat=1) Whether it's actually the Ark or not, it will be interesting to see what exactly they've unearthed.[/color] Title: Re: Noah's Ark Possibly Found?

Title: Re: Noah's Ark Possibly Found? Post by: Woodsman on 2006-06-19, 17:40 There have been reports of an ark at Ararat for decades but little has come of them. I dont see how well a boat can be preserved over 5000 years anyway.

Title: Re: Noah's Ark Possibly Found? Post by: Phoenix on 2006-06-25, 03:41 Well I guess this is the equivalent of "vaporware". The article is gone and no footage on Fox. I just love it when that happens. I was so looking forward to at least something of archaological significance, even if it wasn't the Ark. -_-
Title: Re: Noah's Ark Possibly Found? Post by: Phoenix on 2006-06-26, 15:31 Correction: I found more information on the expedition. At least that much is real (that there was an actual expedition). As for whether or not it's the ark, well read it and decide for yourself if it's enough evidence or not. Even if it's not the ark, it looks like it could still be an important archaeological find.

this story is going to be intresting as the facts come out. :D Title: Re: Noah's Ark Possibly Found? Post by: Phoenix on 2006-06-28, 01:50 God made it rain for 40 days and 40 nights. I think the Creator of the entire universe can handle such a trivial matter as what to do with a little water. ;)
