1/5 of the Ark Taking Shape

by Ken Ham on August 27, 2015

I was at the life-size Noah's Ark site in Northern Kentucky recently (I went down as soon as I arrived back from Missouri) to do a short promotion video, and here are some photos that were taken while I was there.

More decking and more of the exterior on the section of Ark on the platform

The people in some of the photographs will help you understand the scale of this gigantic structure. The timber frame section represents about 1/5 of the Ark itself—the other 4/5 will go up very quickly over the next two months.

Keep up to date at ArkEncounter.com. The Ark Encounter will likely open late summer 2016.

If you have questions about Noah and the Flood, and the construction of this Ark, you can learn the answers to some of the common claims on our website.

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying,
Ken
