Was Jesus Really Wrapped in the Shroud of Turin? 3D Study Says Probably Not

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-12-13 14:50:26

The Shroud of Turin is an ancient linen cloth with the subtle impression of the front and back of a crucified man. While many believe it was the burial shroud in which Jesus was wrapped when he died in the 30s CE, scientific research has dated it to between 1260 and 1390 CE, suggesting it’s a medieval artifact. An ingenious new approach using 3D scans is now adding further credence to the suggestion that Jesus’s body—or any body for that matter—never touched this famous fabric. Cicero Moraes, a

Quantum computing is interesting. It’s really a wonderful area for research, but my feeling is we have a long way to go.
