Satellite may have found Noah’s Ark
"I see for a 1,015 feet in length a shiplike object that has almost unbroken symmetry."
"Currently, I'm working with a naval architecture team, and they're trying to determine whether a wooden boat this size could actually float."

Mount Ararat, Turkey - A satellite image may launch a scientific expedition to search for Noah's Ark. The snapshot captures a mysterious object on Turkey's Mount Ararat.
(Taylor) calculated that the object in the photo had the same length-to-width ratio -- 300 cubits by 500 cubits -- of the ark described in the Bible. That is about the size of an aircraft carrier.
