Answer 1
It has been around since God created it. Its not gazillions of years old. Dont believe that crud. It all a lie. The universe has no real creation date. Please read The Bible, it will help open your eyes to so much knowledge. I'm not begging, just a suggestion to the reader.
Answer 2
The latest astronomical data shows the universe to be around 13.7 billion years old.

∙ 12y agoThe matter that came in to what would later become our solar system probably began to coalesce and come together about 6 billion years ago. Many scientists do not believe that a solar system comes into being on its own; gas and dust that had been freely floating in space for billions of years would need some event to create a shock wave - something like a supernova star exploding near a gassy nebula.
That event probably happened around 6 billion years ago, plus or minus a billion years. Our solar system began forming shortly after that, and we believe that the Sun ignited and began nuclear fusion about 4.6 to 4.7 GA (GA = gigayears, or 1 billion years) ago.

By the time it is 10 billion years old it will have changed into a red giant and its atmosphere will stretch out to near where the Earth is today
