Unreferenced date December 2009 Orphan date November 2006 The Log of the Ark is a children s book written by Kenneth Walker author Kenneth Walker and Geoffrey Boumphrey . It was first published by Constable & Co., London, 1923. It was first published in the U.S.A. by E.P. Dutton & Co., New York , 1926 under the title What Happened in the Ark . One of the many editions was by Puffin Books in 1963 . The book s plot describes the way in which an outcast animal, the scub , infiltrates the Noah s Arkark and introduces certain of the other species to the idea of eating meat. Until this point, all the animals eat porridge with a dollop of treacle . This sinister development is described alongside a good deal of slapstick humour. For example the nautically naive Noah initially constructs the ark with all the large animals quartered together for social reasons, only discovering the consequences for its stability when the flood waters surround it. Like many later fictionalisations of the Noah story, from Gary Larson to Julian Barnes , it introduces mythical beasts such as the unicorn into the Ark s passenger list, a device with obvious dramatic potential we assume that such creatures are unlikely to survive the voyage. Here, as elsewhere, the comic elements mask tragic ones to good effect. Especially memorable is the plight of the Seventy sevenses , a pair of nondescript and painfully shy mammals who name themselves after the number of their cabin, and who eventually abandon the Ark on a small raft because the atmosphere on board has become too oppressive. There was also an even sadder pair of animals The Clidders who melted when it began to rain Outwardly this is a de theologised version of the story God does not appear, and the purpose of deluge myth the Flood is not mass drowning. Yet the way the scub creeps into the childish innocence of the Noah s ArkArk and subverts it still ... Log Of The Ark Category 1923 books Child novel stub ... more details

Their homeworld is Ark Noon Universe Ark , a planet officially discovered 2160 AD in the course of Ark Project . Ark Megaforms are mentioned only in one book Space Mowgli . Appearance No information on the appearance of Ark Megaforms has ever been recorded, although members of ER 2 group, the humans that discovered them, recall strange 600 meter tall structures that appeared somewhere behind the mountains every time they tried to contact the Megaforms. They looked like colossal segmented insect like antennas at 100 meter amplitude. No connection between these structures and Megaforms was ever confirmed. Technological Advancement No exact data available. It is assumed that the intellectual abilities of Megaforms surpass those of humans megaforms were able to directly communicate with a human Piere Little One Semyonov and make him perceive the world their way. They were also able to adapt Semyonov s body to the harsh environment of their home planet. Background No data available. Apparently, the Megaforms are a so called closed civilization that avoids contact with the others. Ark Megaforms and Humans Megaforms directly contacted ER 2 explorer group led by Gennady Komov and demanded their immediate withdrawal from the planet Ark. No other direct contact was ever recorded. Minor personalities of the Noon Universe Semyonov, Piere Piere Semyonov , better known under the nickname Little One , was a son of Alexander Semyonov and Maria Luisa Semyonova whose spaceship was shot down in 2147 by Wanderers Noon Universe Wanderers satellite orbiting the Ark. It is unclear why Megaforms saved the boy. Later they used Piere as their proxy in communication with the progressors visiting the planet.

Image Svalbard vault mountain cutaway.jpg thumb 300px The Svalbard Global Seed Vault is a knowledge ark that was built to preserve plant seeds also known as a seedbank A Knowledge Ark also known as a doomsday ark or doomsday vault is a collection of knowledge preserved in such a way that future generations would have access to said knowledge if current means of access were lost. Scenarios where availability to information such as the Internet would be lost could be described as Existential risk Existential Risks or Extinction level event Extinction Level Events . A knowledge ark could take the form of a traditional Library or a modern Database computer database . It could also include images only such as photographs of important information, or diagrams of critical processes . A knowledge ark would have to be resistant to the effects of natural or man made disasters to be viable. Such an ark should include, but would not be limited to, information or material relevant to the survival and prosperity of human civilization. Current examples include the Svalbard Global Seed Vault , a seedbank which is intended to preserve a wide variety of plant seeds such as important crops in case of their extinction. A Colonization of the Moon Lunar ark Lunar ark has been proposed which would store and transmit valuable information to receiver stations on Earth. The success of this would also depend on the availability of compatible receiver equipment on Earth, and adequate knowledge of that equipment s operation. Other types of knowledge arks might include genetic material. With the potential for widespread personal DNA sequencing becoming a reality, an individual might agree to store their genetic code in a digital or analog storage format which would enable later retrieval of that code. If a species was sequenced before extinction, its genome would remain available for study even in the case of extinction.
