We know its age and size are two sides to the same coin.(relative) We
know one way to find its age is to measure the decay of its radioactive elements.,and this gives a very good measurement of the oldest earth rocks.. They are 3.8 billion years old. dating our solar system we have meteorites that are 4.6 billion years old. We really have to start guessing when trying to measure the age of nebula,and old stars. read the oldest stars might have a life span of 12 billion years I think if we could find stars with very little or no heavy elements immerged in them they would have to be created out of hydrogen and helium the only stuff around,and to start up their fusion core would be a longer time processes. Posted it would be great if we could find a white dwarf that was nearing its end and ready to shut of its light. Have a gut feeling my guessing the universe's age at 22 billion years kind of fits Go figure bert |
