I would think people having searching for more than 70 years.
A little late. I believe the ark has already been found.
Pictures and story of the excavation at:

I recall reading something similar about 20 - 30 years ago in an archaeological review (scientific - not religious) journal.
There were several problems. The govt of Turkey would NOT permit at that time any one to go poking around up there .. no international teams, no scientific research. Period. Glad to see they did do a joint venture
and The pix I can recall were fairly interesting.. aerials with an image in ice. various views. The problem was that this area really never thawed & so all was encased in ice year round ..........just in “summer” less ice..
The warm season MIGHT permit opportunities to investigate if the proper permits could be secured (less Ice but apparently still encased). At that time I found it fascinating & frankly did not follow it anymore & just had my memory jarred when I saw this article.
If I am recalling correctly at the time there was a LOT of tension as air space was violated to get the pix. Now with satellite it would not be a problem
There was a series on tv “In Search of” hosted by Leonard Nimoy that publicized the possible location of the ark. The episode aired in 1979 called “Noah’s Flood”.
>>came out with material evidence, to prove that the Ark was nestled on Mount Ararat, Turkeys highest mountain peak bordering Iran and Armenia<<
I wonder how they would prove its “the ark?”
Even if there is a boat there thats the right size, it would take a good bit more to show it was the original and not a copy and that it was used to transport all those different animal.
I would think they should find the DNA of hundreds of species of animals who live no where near the are on “the Ark.”
Now, I don’t doubt there was a local flood that was referenced in the Bible but even the base of what is called Mt Ararat today is 5000 feet above sea level and to be even a few thousand feet above that as part of a world wide flood would have left observable evidence.
Oooh a one meter long piece of petrified wood.
This story is posted here anually. Yawn...stretch...
wake me up when you really find something.
Noah had it easy.
I had to ride it out on an ice floe. Man, I got tired of eating fish.
It was done as a training and targeting exercise for the new tool, but they soon regretted the decision as it brought unwanted attention to them, both from a curious public, and idiot elected officials looking to point to alleged waste by the agencies.
And, the photo resolution quality was probably a secret that they didn't want released.
I don't know if they are still classified.
Maybe Creationists heads too, since this is a piece of petrified wood.
It is interesting that the wood would be petrified after such a short time, and without a silicate or lime layer over it.
I hope their heads do explode.
Pictures?
Ping?
If more of this story comes out, I might be tempted to make a crypto-ping. Granted, it’s not a crypto-topic, but if true, it would be HUGE enough to justify one, methinks.

> ... the mount which has a direct reference in Holy Quran (Mount Judi) and Bible,...
Why is it the “Holy Quran” and just the “Bible”. Shouldn’t it be the “Holy Bible”? Is the “Holy Bible” less holy than the “Guidebook for Terrorists”?

Let me know when they find petrified lions poop and Llama poop in close proximity of one another.
