@Aliveshock The margin of error is 0.8B years, which puts it well with the currently accepted age of the universe.

This was measuring the elements in the star and the difference was more than you presented or they wouldn’t still be mentioning it in the news continually this week. They are really questioning that really really old big bang nonsense.

How is the Big Bang nonsense?
@Northwest
They were still posting even today.
If it was insignificant the story would have been squashed like a bug.
It has been a straight week so far.
Are you a scientist?

You must use different scientific sources than myself.
