'Noah's Ark's final resting place' confirmed to be a 'man-made object' in groundbreaking announcement
Daily Mail ^ | 30 September 2026 | By ISABELLA MACHIN, REPORTER and IMOGEN GARFINKEL - SENIOR FOREIGN NEWS REPORTER

A team scanning a boat-shaped hill in eastern Turkey has announced that new radar images show a large man-made structure underground, not just natural rock.

On Wednesday, private research group Noah’s Ark Scans released a preliminary report about their work at the Durupınar Formation in Turkey, claiming that the 515-foot boat-shaped mound contained a 'man-made object.'

The scans were conducted by Dr Khosrow Bakhtar, an engineer who spent decades building detection systems for US defense agencies, including the Air Force, Navy and NORAD.

He used a system he invented called BakhtarRadar, originally developed to find buried tunnels and hidden structures, to scan beneath the boat-shaped Durupınar mound and see whether it was solid natural rock or a man-made structure with rooms and corridors inside.

That process has now concluded that the object under the Durupınar mound is not a natural rock formation, but a large organized man-made structure with corridors, chambers and hallways inside.

In a press release sent to the Daily Mail, Dr Bakhtar said: 'Whatever the object is beneath the surface is extraordinary.

'In forty years of this work, I have never seen anything like it. It could be a ship. It could be a spaceship. What I can say from the radar is that it is organized, it is structural, and a solid geological mass would not have returned such a strong signature.'

As someone asked on another thread, wouldn’t wood have gone to nothing after thousands of years? I doubt there’s a peat bog up there...

My guess is that people scavenged the ark for wood to construct houses, etc. So there would have been nothing left after a few years.

This is an answer to prayer, that more and more of things that took place in this Earth’s actual history, according to God’s Word, be confirmed via archaeological discoveries, records and evidence.

It says in The Bible, that if the children shouting praises to The Lord Jesus along with everyone witnessing His entrance into Jerusalem were silenced, He said the rocks would cry out.

I do not however believe that The Ark of The Covenant is here on earth, but is in God’s Temple in Heaven (see Revelation 11:19).

How thrilling it will be once entrance is made into the ground and ever so carefully looking within the actual Ark, noting the lower, mid and upper decks, the corridors and enclosures for all the creatures God selected to populate the earth once again. DNA of animals, creatures, birds, and even Noah and his family (hair, clothing), and tools

Astounding .

Mary is the Ark of the New Covenant.

And yes, she's in Heaven.

I heard something about it being petrified, or well on its way. Since reaching its resting place, I don't think all that wood could've been excavated by people for use on housing, etc., if the ballast area and floors HAD SUNK DEEP INTO MUD shortly after the animals were removed.

It was once speculated that the ENTIRETY of the Great Pyramid of Giza was covered in some type of a flat stone finish but over time this covering had eroded or was LOOTED FOR VARIOUS PURPOSES. All that remains is a covering only at the TIP of the pyramid !!!! Interesting.

The Shroud of Turin is REAL, Noah's Ark is REAL. Now I await confirmation that the Ark of the Covenant is REALLY in that church in Ethiopia that is closely guarded 24/7.

Genesis 6:14 tells us that G+d told Noah to surface the wood of the arc with pitch [my words].

An interesting theory is that the Black Sea was once below sea level. After the ocean broke through it created the flood that became the Ark story.
