A team of evangelical Christian explorers claim that they have found the remains of Noah's ark beneath snow and volcanic debris on Turkey's Mount Ararat. Pictures of the site also look pretty convincing. Speaking to a gathering of over 100 scientists from Turkey and around the world at a 3-day symposium, American researcher Professor Paul Esprante said he intends to uncover more evidence to prove the ark landed there.
"My purpose is to visit the sites around the mountain to find clues about catastrophic events in the past." Adding that, "rigorous, serious scientific work is needed in the area, and I would like to collaborate in that. We have technical resources and we can work together with local experts. The results of my findings will be published in books, publications and journals, but at this point it is too early to know what we are going to find. Once the scientific community knows about the existence of Noah's Ark in Mount Ararat, we can make it available to the general public."
