No specific scientist came up with the observation that the Earth is more than a thousand years old, it is patently obvious since many scientific observations and documentation was written down before that span of time. As far as determining the actual age of the Earth (about 5 billion years) the sciences of geophysics, astronomy, geochemistry and others contribute to the proof of this position.
The theory of evolution describes the change in genetic material of a population of organisms over time. The theory of evolution has nothing to do with the age of the earth. Scientists estimate the age of the earth to be around 4.5 billion years, based on radiometric dating of moon rocks.
No, the Egyptians were using limestone at least a thousand years before the Romans came on the scene.
Scientist have a theory that the moon was created when the earth was side swiped and some of it's crust was blown away and formed the moon. The earth's gravity held it close to us.
Probably several times. It is assumed that a third of Earth water came from comets and it was a comet that hit the Earth 65 million years ago and caused the dinosaur extinction.
They found the diameter of the Earth by measuring the angle of the Sun above the horizon at noon at two different places, Alexandria and Aswan. The 7 degree difference gave the Earth's circumference as 360/7 times the distance between those two cities.
They do not think plant life 'came' to Earth. They believe it evolved here.
ADAM and EVE was Exist almost hundred Thousand of years ago it is not true that mankind LIVE in this world almost 6000 years it is LIE and fake, the Mayan Civilization was exist almost 35 Thousand years ago and if Adam and Eve was almost 6000 years;why the Mayan exist almost 35 thousand years ago? the Bible say the Every Human live in the Planet are came to the descendant of Adam and Eve, it is True that the Beliefs that Human live in this earth almost 6000 years ago was Fake and it is just only Theory, according to the discovery of the Scientist and archaeologist the Planet was Exist almost 4.7 Billion Years ago and the Mankind live in this Planet almost Hundred Thousand Years ago, so LORD God Created the earth almost 4.7Billion years ago and mankind live almost Hundred Thousand years ago according to the Bible the world was Create by God in Six Days and From the Seventh Day GOD was Rest, there are many Proof that mankind did not exist almost 6000 years but Hundred thousand years, one of them was the Mayan according to the archaeologist the Mayan Exist in this Planet almost 35 Thousand years ago and the Mayan was Human and all Human Came to the descendant of Adam and Eve, so how Adam and Eve exist in 6000 years if the mayan was exist almost 35 Thousand years ago? this is the Proof that the Mankind DID NOT Live in 6000 Thousand years.
millions of years ago
Dinosaurs died out (except for birds) some 70 million years ago. Primitive homo sapiens (that's us) have been around for only a few hundred thousand years
About 2011 years ago
It has been around a lot longer than just a few thousand years. When Earth was formed, clumps of rock in space came together to create it and some of those rocks contained the element gold.
They came from the eygt and dogs was the ruler of the egytians
the scientist who came up with these theories are unknown
1day and we came after the planet of the apes
Our species have been on Earth for only a couple of hundred thousand of years. The humans came about 65 million years after the dinosaurs and they went extinct after existing for about 200 million years so the human race come certainly to an end too. When no one is totally sure. But eventually every one of Earth's species will die out.
some scientist are atheist and obvioulsy do not believe that god created the world, so they believe that the world started when particles came together and wiola! the earth came to be...
