Can relative age dating be used to determine the age of the universe?

No, relative age dating cannot be used to determine the age of the universe. Relative age dating is a method used to determine the relative order of events or objects in geology or paleontology. To determine the age of the universe, scientists use various methods such as the measurement of the cosmic microwave background radiation and the analysis of the redshift of galaxies.


How old might some of the particles in your diamond ring be?

As the age of the universe is about 13.73 billion years, nothing in your diamond ring can be older than that. The oldest carbon atoms in a given diamond may be 11 to 12 billion years old.

How do astronomes determine the age of the universe?

This is deduced from the expansion of the Universe. Far-away galaxies recede (go away) from us, with such a speed, that they must have been near us about 14 billion years ago.


How has cosmic background radiation helped us determine the age of the universe?

The CMBR did not reveal anything DIRECTLY about the age of our Universe. However, its spectrum and isotropy are almost perfectly as predicted by a Universe that began to expand about thirteen billion years ago -- a timeline given by the Hubble Constant. As such, it gives extremely strong support to that timeline.


When was The Diamond Age created?

The Diamond Age was created in 1995.


Scientists say that thr Universe started about 14 billion years ago Does this allow us to determine the size or total area of the Universe?

It is more likely that we derived the age of the universe from its present size. The age depends upon the value of the Hubble Constant, which probably isn't really a constant in the strictest sense.As for the area of the universe, regarding it as a sphere is probably a mistake. The topology of the universe is different from that of the 3 dimensional objects with which we are familiar. ---- The answer is No. According to Astrophysicist David Palmer, we cannot currently determine the actual size of the Universe; but only attempt to determine the size of the "known" Universe which is that part of the Universe that we can see. It's analogous to standing in a stationary position in the middle of a dessert. We will be able to view sand all around us; but will have no idea how much more sand may lie beyond that which we can see.
