This thread is worthless without pictures.

I don’t care if it’s the Ark or not, if it’s possibly a 10K+ year old structure high up on a mountain where it shouldn’t be, it needs to be investigated!

My thoughts exactly. This site has been purported to be Noah’s Ark for 100 years. I can’t believe it has not been thoroughly excavated and examined. Scientists of every stripe have spent countless years analyzing Stonehenge, which in comparison to Noah’s Ark, is utterly meaningless. It’s a big pile of rocks used by a bunch of ancient sun-worshippers. There should teams of scientists, believers or not, at the site on Ararat painstakingly chipping away—if it takes another 100 years. We spent millions putting men on the moon, but we can’t put men on Ararat.

The surface scatter of the wood above the large structure is 121.1 meters in length and 23.8 meters in width.

The length of the ark was 300 cubits, its breadth 50 cubits, and its height 30 cubits". This is equivalent to a length of 137.2 meters, a breadth of 22.9 meters and a height of 13.7 meters (assuming an 18" cubit); or 152.4m, 25.4m and 15.2m (if the 20" Egyptian cubit was used). (per Wikipedia).

The dimensions of the remains provided in the article are quite close to those of Noah's Ark.

The Hongkong team that scaled Ararat is aware of the skeptical analysis by Dr. Andrew Snelling ( the link you gave ). They gave a response ( unfortunately, written in Chinese ). See here:

“Jurassic Ark”...that would have been one hell of a flick.
