    "Está ubicado en Kentucky, Estados Ubidos, e incluye una réplica de 155 metros de largo y 51 metros de alto del arca que el personaje bíblico usó para salvar a numerosas especies de la inundación desatada por Dios. El navío, que incluye modelos de los animales y costó US$ 100 millones, fue construido por el grupo cristiano Answers que afirma que todos los eventos que aparecen en la Biblia son literales. Además, la construcción recibió beneficios tributarios por parte de Kentucky, lo cual fue duramente criticado por investigadores que acusan al proyecto de contradecir lo que se enseña sobre ciencia en las escuelas."

    "USA: Den har byggts efter beskrivningarna i Bibeln, är nästan 160 meter lång och har kostat motsvarande 850 miljoner kronor. Nu öppnar The Ark Encounter, en kopia av Noaks ark i den amerikanska delstaten Kentucky, för allmänheten. Noaks ark var det fartyg som Noak, enligt Första Moseboken, använde för att rädda livet på jorden undan syndafloden. Arken i Kentucky har byggts av kristna som tror att händelsen verkligen har ägt rum, rapporterar nyhetsbyrån AP på sin webbplats. Projektet är kontroversiellt, delvis för att det bekostats av skattepengar, delvis för att det, enligt kritikerna, motverkar den mer vetenskapliga synen på livets uppkomst."

    "Den kristna amerikanska organisationen ”Answers in Genesis” har byggt en 155 meter lång träbåt i Kentucky – en kopia av Noaks ark enligt de bibliska proportionerna. ”Answers of Genesis” menar att syndafloden verkligen har inträffat och att Noaks ark fanns på riktigt. De hävdar också att Gud skapade jorden med människor och djur, inklusive dinosaurier, för omkring 6 000 år sedan. Vetenskapen har däremot konstaterat att levande dinosaurier inte har funnits på vår planet de senaste 65 miljoner åren."
