Greetings, Putting the Ark into modern day measurements: 450ft long x 75ft wide x 45ft high. Now, to put this into perspective: NFL regulation Football field: 360ft pylon to pylon NHL regulation Hockey Rink: 85ft wide Commercial building Story: 10-15 ft. Furthermore, the Ark would have contained 1,500,000 cubic feet of space. This is equal to approximately 570 standard American Railroad Boxcars, each capable of holding 240 sheep each, which is the size of the average animal. Now, the bible doesn't say that Noah took adult specimens, and he was on the ark long enough for many of them to mature if he took young animals. It is estimated that about 30k to 50k of animals would be needed to save enough animals to repopulate the earth. Of the given space, Noah would have used only 30-40 percent of the space for animals, leaving 60-70 percent for food and supplies. Jalek |

Greetings, According to Genesis 7:6, Noah was 600 years old when the flood began. According to Genesis 8:13, Noah was 601 years old when the flood waters receded, and he left the ark about a month later. If you calculate the time listed in between those verses, Noah and his family were on the Ark for every bit of a year, at least 250 days. Jalek |
