The Genesis Flood, the Ark, and the ongoing search in the mountains of Ararat.
A permitted 2026 expedition at the boat-shaped Durupınar formation near Mount Ararat reports radar anomalies, organic-rich cores and a drill bit broken on a hard layer. Here is what is claimed, what is unconfirmed, and when lab results are due.
The Durupınar formation is often said to match the length of Noah's Ark. Does it? We run the numbers with different ancient cubits and compare the width and height, too.
Supporters point to a 515-foot boat-shaped outline, radar images and soil chemistry. Geologists, including creationist geologists, see a natural formation. Here is the whole debate, fairly stated and sourced.
