Probably some caveman somewhere.
That's a little facetious, but it makes the point: ATTEMPTING it is easy, actually DOING it is a bit more difficult.
No. The estimated age of the sun and planets is somewhere less than 5 billion years, whereas we can see objects in the universe whose age is estimated at 13.5 billion years.
that portion of the universe that we can see in principle, given the finite age of the universe
Light from distant objects in the universe allows scientists to determine the age of those objects based on the time it takes for the light to reach us. The farther away an object is, the longer it takes for its light to travel to us, giving us a glimpse into the past. By measuring the redshift of the light, scientists can calculate the age of the object based on the expansion of the universe.
If the age of the universe is equivalent to 1 day, which is 86,400 seconds, then the proportion of mankind's age to the age of the universe is 106 years to 1010 years. Therefore, multiplying 86,400 seconds by 106/1010 will give you the number of seconds mankind would have existed, which is approximately 9,072 seconds.
There is no evidence that the universe has an outer edge. The universe is thought to be spatially infinite, meaning it goes on forever in all directions. Our observable universe is limited by the speed of light and the age of the universe, not by a physical boundary.
One way scientists use to calculate the age of the universe is by measuring the rate of expansion of the universe since the Big Bang. By studying the cosmic microwave background radiation, astronomers can determine the age of the universe to be about 13.8 billion years.
Einstein never made any such calculation. Even today the total size of our Universe is speculative at best. Einstein speculated it was infinite in both size and age.
By measuring the rate of expansion of the universe using the Hubble constant and then calculating backwards to determine when the universe started expanding, scientists can estimate the age of the universe. By studying the cosmic microwave background radiation left over from the Big Bang, scientists can infer the age of the universe by measuring the temperature fluctuations and using them to determine the time since the universe began.
Scientists use the red shift of light from distant galaxies to measure their distance from us. By measuring the rate of expansion of the universe using red shift data, scientists can calculate the age of the universe, known as the Hubble time, which is currently estimated to be around 13.8 billion years.
Lincoln attempted to run for Vice President in 1856 when he was 47.
The Universe has an age estimated to be about 13.8 billion years.
It wasn't really DARK, at least not at first; what with the enormous temperatures and the large amount of radiation it had. The Universe got TRANSPARENT at an age of about 380,000 years; the so-called "Dark Ages" span the time after this, until the Universe had an age of somewhere between 150 million and 800 million years, which is when the first stars formed.

The universe simply cant expand at 0 acceleration.

Because that is how old the universe is believed to be
