Drilling has begun at a mysterious boat-shaped formation in eastern Turkey that researchers have long debated as a possible resting place of Noah's Ark, with investigators now seeking physical evidence after scans appeared to reveal 'corridors and chambers' hidden underground.
The Noah's Ark Scans team has started collecting core samples from the Durupinar formation, about 29 kilometres south of Mount Ararat, as part of a permitted scientific investigation involving Turkish researchers. The formation's unusual shape has fuelled speculation for decades, but its identification as the biblical vessel remains unproven.
