Researchers Share Video from Inside Turkey's Durupınar Formation Linked to Noah's Ark
Researchers investigating the 515-foot Durupınar Formation in Turkey, believed by some to be Noah's Ark, have shared video footage captured by a small underground robot called Gopher. The team, including Noah's Ark Scans founder Andrew Jones and archaeologist Cenker Atila, has explored beneath the formation and collected samples, noting the absence of solid rock in some areas. While the video offers a close look inside the formation, no conclusive evidence has confirmed it as the biblical Ark, and laboratory tests are ongoing.
