stereo ikonos satellite image data utilized to support 3d terrain visualization for mt. ararat anomaly in turkey

satellite imaging corporation has created a 3d terrain model of the mt. ararat anomaly from stereo ikonos satellite image data, a mysterious 980 foot long feature located in remote northeastern turkey, which some researchers believe could be the remains of noah's ark.

noah's ark is (still) in turkey
by dan eden for viewzone

why is this not a big story?

i'm often amazed at our lack of knowledge about history. ordinary people are hungry for this information, yet the organizations responsible to disseminate these facts seem to have an agenda to keep us in the dark. this is especially true when it comes to our ancient human history.

i won't hold you in suspense with this article: the ark of noah has been found. it's real. i'll describe the evidence in some detail and end with the historical and religious implications.

how it was discovered

in 1959, turkish army captain llhan durupinar discovered an unusual shape while examining aerial photographs of his country. the smooth shape, larger than a football field, stood out from the rough and rocky terrain at an altitude of 6,300 feet near the turkish border with iran.

capt. durupinar was familiar with the biblical accounts of the ark and its association with mount ararat in turkey, but he was reluctant to jump to any conclusions. the region was very remote, yet it was inhabited with small villages. no previous reports of an object this odd had been made before. so he forwarded the photographic negative to a famous aerial photography expert named dr. brandenburger, at ohio state university.

brandenburger was responsible for discovering the cuban missile bases during the kennedy era from reconnaissance photos, and after carefully studying the photo, he concluded: "i have no doubt at all, that this object is a ship. in my entire career, i have never seen an object like this on a stereo photo."

this is a very interesting article. i did always tend to percieve of the ark story as something a little more metaphorical like the way sitchin describes the event. but who knows really. this is a great find david. thanks for bringing this to light as people should be shout about this from the rooftops.

the problem with the ark: noah's ark is actually a renaming and retelling of the gilgalmesh's journey were he built a raft and brought many animals two by two.....

that is not a problem with the ark. it is a problem with the story.

just as christianity borrowed many ancient stories, this was one of them.

this does, however, not detract from the fact that this craft existed.

[Irrampbroow]

there are a lot of flood stories from around the world and there may have been more than one boat or ark. stories about how a particular group survived the cataclysm vary but many involve boats. i don't recall that sitchin presented it as metaphorical. he presented it as utnapishtim (gilgamesh's grandfather) being a human-alien hybrid child of ea, who found a way to disobey the council decision to not warn humanity, and instructed him to build the ark.

relic reveals noah's ark was circular
• newly translated tablet gives building instructions
• amateur historian's find was almost overlooked

you could very easily just get the photo scanned, that way you can share it.

i gathered from sitchin that the ark was a sort of submarine, though metaphorical applications were also made. i got the impression that he preferred to lay out as many possibilities as he could, which i can respect, even though it could be confusing. i suppose anything in this field can be confusing; after all, not everything is based on hard facts or evidence.
then again, i'm going on info that's over 30 years old...i accept that a lot of discoveries have been made since. if anyone would like to throw references at me to get more up to speed, please feel free. i would very much appreciate it, as it can be difficult to find the most reliable material.

well, i have been meaning to get all my travel photos (before i went digital) onto cds ... maybe i should just do it soon ... when i do i will post ... thanks for the push ...

i do wonder if it is noahs ark. how do we know its noahs. lol

but i remember hearing arguments about this - the first is that the ark would have been made of wood of course... and even in the ice, it would have deteriorated a long time ago. other scientists believe that this was not a worldwide flood, merely a flood in that specific location (where noah lived).

im not saying these are my arguments these are just some i have heard, to throw in the mix here.

personally i lean more towards the ideal that it was advanced technology as someone suggested. i would also wonder that since no one truly has an exact date on atlantis, nor do they have one of noah - from what i understand we really can guess when the story of noah was published - not how long ago it supposedly happened. who knows.

also giuliana conforto http://www.giulianaconforto.it/english/home.eng.htm says in http://www.giulianaconforto.it/english/bruno's.htm that noah's ark could be a technology for "phase transition" between parallel worlds
