High on Mt. Ararat in eastern Turkey, there is a baffling mountainside "anomaly," a feature that one researcher claims may be something of biblical proportions.
Images taken by aircraft, intelligence-gathering satellites and commercial remote-sensing spacecraft are fueling an intensive study of the intriguing oddity. But whether the anomaly is some geological quirk of nature, playful shadows, a human-made structure of some sort, or simply nothing at allthat remains to be seen.
Whatever it is, the anomaly of interest rests at 15,300 feet (4,663 meters) on the northwest corner of Mt. Ararat, and is nearly submerged in glacial ice. It would be easy to call it merely a strange rock formation.
But at least one man wonders if it could be the remains of Noah's Arka vessel said to have been built to save people and selected

Well I have had cars sitting out back for 10 years and they look just like they did 10 years ago, but that is Arizona dry atmosphere....
Here is another link I saw along time ago and seems like it may be a different location in Turkey...

Gotta cut and paste the above link... not sure why it wont work, but it does if you cut and paste...
I read about this in a book on Pyramidology! (you know the engraver of the $1.00 bill put the Pyramid on the back of the bill with the All Seeing Eye at the pinnacle. He was an advocate of Pyramidology)
The All Seeing Eye knows where the Ark/Canoe is.
Do You?
There was a movie over 30 years ago that claimed to have found Noah's Ark and showed pictures of it. What ever became of that claim?
Basically all the claims have been a joke; there are no anomalies of any kind on Ararat that need explaining, just routine geological features.

yes, I seem to remember something about that- that was about the time the "Chariots of the God's" movie came out-- (I loved that one) :)
If memory served, they even brought back a piece of wood, and claimed it was from the Ark? Something about not being allowed by the government of Turkey or some such preventing them from going back? Those evil Turks.
It is not in my junk closet, I just clean the closet last week.
Hey some very intelligent non-smoking sophisticated people love this stuff. Let them be.
I've been hearing this same story for almost 40 years...
It was a hoax.
I'm still trying to get the creationists to explain to me how the koala walked all the way back to Australia without any eyucalyptus leaves, or how the sloth, which lives its entire life in a tree swam home.
Or any rational explanation about the ark, other than the cop out "it was a miracle"
That film turned out to be a complete and total scam and hoax.

You've never heard of hibernation? Oh, and then of course there is the theory of Pangea( the single landmass/continent)? I've heard a few explanations.
Oh, my point being that some Christians believe that before the flood, there was a single land mass, and after the flood, the continents split and began to divide. Who knows?
Ok, just playing.
Are these the supposed coordinates: 39 26' 47.0" N, 44 14'11.0" E
Thanks...always wondered what the final story was on that movie.
A Volkswagen will, within 2 years, will collapse into dust?
Maybe on the surface of Venus.

They obviously evolved, spontaneously, by chance, along the way.
