RCRS Email Update: Interesting. Dateline Portland, 28 August 2003 For you readers interested in my 3-D images page, and such like interests including archaeology, read this one below. I have been interested in the way the mind has of making meaningful images out of random smudges, clouds, rock formations, etc. I even once found a face on earth! Right next to the great wall of China. Imagine that! But, of course, it is a trick of the eyes and the mind, because the mind prefers order over disorder, and randomness is something, evidently, the mind prefers to organize, thus, voila! a face on mars, a boat on Ararat, a smiley face in Montana, Idaho, parts of Oregon....oh, wait, that was done by aliens, right, I forgot! But most of these things are not anything. Just a trick of the eyes. Now, so I don't look stupid, I will go see what this is all about! rsc --Quote--- Wow, check this link out!!

Reply-To: wyatt@yahoogroups.com Hi Guys I've found a site on the internet that gives an interesting analysis of Noah's Ark with the aid of satellite images.

Ararat (some 18.2 miles apart, center to center), I agree that the Wyatt Group could pool money together to accomplish this very important piece of documentation (which I believe has never been done before, at least not including the true Noah's Ark site). My understanding is that there are many commercial satellites (non-governmental) that upon request can photograph a given geographic location. There are many satellite images readily available for purchase, but all of these images were someone else's previous request which are now made available to the general public for resale. The problem is there are images available of the Greater Mt. Ararat, but NONE containing the real Noah's Ark to the south. We need to determine which satellite company to order from, the location and how large the total area is for the satellite to photograph (including the Greater Mt. Ararat and Noah's Ark), the best quality (around 1 meter per pixel in color), and a reasonable price. Noah's Ark: Latitude 29° 26' 26" N, Longitude 44° 14' 05.3" E Peak of Greater Mt. Ararat: Latitude 39° 42' N, Longitude 44° 18' E Anchor Stone #1: Latitude 39° 37' 31.6" N, Longitude 43° 59' 42.2" E I just found in one of my file folders a diagram I made several months ago of the geographic layout of the Ararat region. The grid (which includes Noah's Ark, the Greater Mt. Ararat, and just outside the grid to the left is Anchor Stone #1) is about 26.4 miles horizontally and 34.5 miles vertically. If my calculations are correct, each box in the grid is 8.8 miles horizontally and 11.5 miles vertically (these measurements vary depending on the geographic location). "Degrees" (°) are divided into 60 "Minutes" (') which are divided into 60 "Seconds" ("). The following represents a 3 X 3 grid: 44° 00' E 44° 10' E 44° 20' E 44° 30' E 39° 50' N 39° 40' N 39° 30' N 39° 20' N Sincerely, David Cruz ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Community email addresses: Post message: wyatt@yahoogroups.com Subscribe: wyatt-subscribe@yahoogroups.com Unsubscribe: wyatt-unsubscribe@yahoogroups.com List owner: wyatt-owner@yahoogroups.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The views and opinions expressed in this discussion list do not necessarily represent the views of Anchor Stone International or Wyatt Archaeological Discoveries.
