The 30 April issue of _Weekly World News_ (pp.24-25_) announces
that Noah's Ark has been seen on Mars by the Ross-Waterhaus Observatory
in Johannesburg. Apparently the earth was colonized millions of years
ago from Mars, and the colonists brought the story of the flood with
them. A pastor of the "Dutch Reform" church (Calvin College folks
please note) is quoted as saying, "Whatever else, this confirms once
again that the Bible is true."
(Evaluating this claim would be a good optics problem for a
general physics class. Hint: Use Rayleigh's criterion.)
Shalom,
