Robert Ballard Finds Noah?



Noah's Ark Found?

The answer is no he has not, but this comes via Fox News, so the article takes a quick and distinctively religious turn, but the science is far more interesting. Robert Ballard- the scientist who found the Titanic- has found evidence for massive floods in the Black Sea basin thousands of years ago. The article reads...

Robert Ballard, the underwater archaeologist famed for discovering the wreck of the Titanic in 1985, claims to have found evidence of the biblical flood that Noah fled, surfing the waters for 40 days and 40 nights, according to Genesis. He says the Black Sea was once merely a freshwater lake -- until an enormous wall of water from the Mediterranean 200 times more powerful than Niagara Falls swept it and everything else away. Including Noah and his ark. 

"We went in there to look for the flood," Ballard told ABC News. "Not just a slow moving, advancing rise of sea level, but a really big flood that then stayed ... the land that went under stayed under."

There is more evidence for massive floods happening around the world at the end of the last ice age. For instance, look up the Bad Lands of Washington State.
