This is Ken Ham, inviting your family to visit our massive Noah’s Ark in Northern Kentucky.

Transcript

If you’ve ever been to the Grand Canyon, you probably saw a light-brown rock layer. This is called the Coconino Sandstone. As the name suggests, it was created by sand cemented together.

It’s over three hundred feet thick and covers two hundred thousand square miles. And inside the sandstone are cross beds. These are basically sand waves produced by water currents.

Now, scientists can measure the beds and determine how fast the water must have been flowing to produce them. And at the rate the water moved, the whole Coconino would’ve been laid down in … just a few days!
