Noah's Ark The Stars of Noah's Ark This is highly speculative - but a possible explanation.

. Noah's Ark in the Stars
in Cubits - based on the Biblical Description

.

Building the Ark

The building of the ark began with the setting of the star Aldebaran
and the neighboring star cluster Hyades (= Noah). Aldebaran (and
the Hyades) was the node to the first star of Scorpio (beta-Scorpionis)
rising, representing the nodes of the ecliptic with the equator of the
celestial sphere - hence, the "heavenly" water line, so to speak.

The ARK of Noah in the Stars

The tip of the ARK were the two end stars
of Monoceros setting. From thence the ark continued along
Monoceros to the head of Hydra setting and from thence
along the length of Hydra setting, with the door, Corvus
(Latvian DURVIS = door, Caurvejs = opening), at the
side of the ark, to Libra, then Scorpio (beta-Scorpionis and
Antares) and from thence until the rising of the lower left corner
star of the Great Square, Adam, noding with the first star of
Capricorn setting, which is 300 days. The length of the ARK,
as stated in the Holy Bible, was 300 cubits. Ararat is the
lowest star on the keel (underside) of the ship, signifying the
outer world. This is now a part of Hydra (from hydro- = water)
the water serpent. The keel of the ship more or less marks the
"water line" of the ecliptic to the celestial equator. The
constellation Aquila is Noah's dove and the times given match
those in the Bible. Here are the data in full:

The Flood Begins

According to the Bible, "In the six hundredth year of Noah's life,
in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the
same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up,
and the windows of heaven were opened."

In 2340 B.C. the celestial equator was marked by the star
beta-Scorpionis at the tip of Scorpio and at the other side by
Aldebaran and the Hyades (Noah). From the rising of Aldebaran
to the rising of Scorpio and the setting of the chosen folk of Orion
(Pleiades, Aldebaran, Hyades, Orion) below the waters, twice around,
is 600 days. Beta-Scorpionis rising is the node star
to Aldebaran and the Hyades setting.

The Waters Prevail 150 days

And the water prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days.
One hundred and fifty days from the rising of the first star of Scorpio
to the rising of the star Aldebaran and the Hyades is 150 days. These
are the stars of the upper ecliptic, when "dry land" is again reached.

Noah's Ark Rests on Ararat

And the Ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth
day of the month, upon the mountain of Ararat. From the rising
of the lower left corner star of the Great Square, Adam, the first day
of the first month, to the lowest star of the Ark, the "keel star" of the
ship, which sits on the mountain of the space of the world (Ararat,
Sumerian Aruru, Latvian ARA=outer, outside), thus nearly noding
the star Arcturus , is 227 days. Seven months of thirty days (as in
Chaldea and Pharaonic Egypt) plus seventeen days is 227 days.

The Waters Decrease to the Mountain Tops

And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month;
in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the
tops of the mountains to be seen. From the rising of the lower
left corner star of the Great Square, Adam, the first day of the first
month, to the rising star beta-Scorpionis, noding with the setting of
the folk of Orion (Pleiades, Aldebaran, Hyades, Orion and Sirius),
i.e. the tips of the mountains, is 300 days.
Ten months of 30 days is 300 days.

Noah Opens the Window of the Ark and sends out the Raven and Dove

And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah
opened the window of the ark, which he had made.
From the rising of the star beta-Scorpionis to Aquila, the bird of
Heaven, is 40 days. Noah sends out a raven first (Cygnus) and
then Aquila, the dove. The bird goes out three times for 7 days
each. The two large stars of Aquila are separated by seven days.
From Aquila to the extreme outer star of the Great Square is seven
days. From there to the right upper corner star of the Great Square
is seven days.

The Flood Ends

And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year,
in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters
were dried up from off the earth.... The flood started in the
600th year of Noah's life and ends with the left lower corner star
of the Great Square, the start of the 601st year. .

The Earth Dries

And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day
of the month, was the earth dried. From the left lower corner
star of the Great Square to the star Aldebaran and the Hyades,
Noah, is 57 days. One month of 30 days plus 27 days is 57 days. .

The Life of Noah

Noah lived 950 years. From the star Aldebaran and the Hyades,
Noah, thrice around to the star beta-Scorpionis (by Antares) is
950 days. Beta-Scorpionis (by Antares) rising is the node star
to Aldebaran and the Hyades, Noah, setting. This position of the
stars defined the nodes of the ecliptic to the sphere of the celestial
equator in 2340-2300 B.C. See Sumerian Stars. Since all but Noah
and his family passed away in the flood, the major stars are now
named anew. Go to the Biblical Patriarchs now starting with
Noah's son, Shem by clicking Abraham.

Sumerian-Akkadian Utna-pishtim "Noah,Gilgamesh" = Latvian Udena Puisitim
Sumerian-Akkadian Ziusuddu or Ziusudra "Noah" = Latvian Zens-udena (Zens-udra)
Both variants are synonyms in Latvian and mean "Son of the Flood"
