Search Results - Age of the Earth

Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

Modern geologists consider the age of the Earth to be around 4.54 billion years (4.54×109 years).[1] This age has been determined by radiometric age dating of meteorite material[2] and is consistent with the ages of the oldest-known terrestrial and lunar samples.

Historically, estimates of the age were based on either creation myths in religious texts, or philosophical interpretations of geologic features, most notably by the Greek philosophers Theophrastus and Xenophanes. Biblical young earth creationists believe that the earth was formed as recently as 4004 BC, whereas Hindu beliefs have the universe enduring for billions of years before being destroyed and recreated in an endless cycle.

Following the scientific revolution and the development of radiometric age dating, measurements of lead in uranium-rich minerals showed that some were in excess of a billion years old.[3] The oldest such minerals analysed to date – small crystals of zircon from the Jack Hills of Western Australia – are at least 4.404 billion years old.[4] Comparing the mass and luminosity of the Sun to the multitudes of other stars, it appears that the solar system cannot be much older than those rocks. Ca-Al-rich inclusions (inclusions rich in calcium and aluminium) – the oldest known solid constituents within meteorites that are formed within the solar system – are 4.567 billion years old [5], giving an age for the solar system and an upper limit for the age of the Earth. It is hypothesised that the accretion of the Earth began soon after the formation of the Ca-Al-rich inclusions and the meteorites. Because the exact accretion time of the Earth is not yet known, and the predictions from different accretion models range from a few millions up to about 100 million years, the exact age of the Earth is difficult to determine. It is also difficult to determine the exact age of the oldest rocks on Earth, exposed at the surface, as they are aggregates of minerals of possibly different ages. The Acasta Gneiss of Northern Canada may be the oldest known exposed crustal rock.

Studies of strata, the layering of rock and earth, gave naturalists an appreciation that the Earth may have been through many changes during its existence. These layers often contained fossilized remains of unknown creatures, leading some to interpret a progression of organisms from layer to layer. Xenophanes interpreted fossil-bearing strata in much the same way during the 6th Century BC.

3. What Comes After The End
November 17, 2008

A new beginning always comes after an ending. We are on the threshold of a new awareness in human evolution. All the periods we have gone through have brought us to this place in time. Currently we are experiencing the ending of religion and the industrial revolution. They have taken us as far as they can. We were taken in by the promise of peace on earth, good will to man, more leisure time to spend in relationships, recreation, and learning. None of these promises have been realized and it is obvious that neither of these systems will take us there. They have brought us to the preci... (read more)

4. Piquant Bread Bar
November 14, 2008

Long gone are the days when George Street pumped out nothing but pizza and subs at all hours. Last year, Piquant Bread Bar and Grill joined the moveable feast of upscale bistros and lounges that George Street has become. Piquant is a spare but inviting space, dressed in calming earth tones. Though it bills itself as “Organic, Eclectic, New Age Indian,” the menu is still a shocker. Thai shrimp salad at an Indian restaurant? Grilled portobello coming from the same kitchen as daal and tandoori? Oh, well. Think local, eat global. I ordered a mint limeade. While I waited, a bowl of crunc... (read more)
