how old is the earth?

Question

is it 4 billion 600 million years or 4 million 600 thousand years

Answer 1

4.6 billion

Answer 2

Sorry but I do not believe that the earth is millions of years old.I mean what could have possibly happened during all of that time?
How did the earth get pulled into the sun's orbit? Why is it that we are as close to the sun to live but far away not to burn? How is this possible? It is because of God and God only. The earth is a couple of Thousands of years old. How is it that everything is so precise about the temperature and the water and everything that is needed for us to live? Why in all of this time have we not found any other live on other planets?(and I am not talking about in our solar system but in other solar systems) And I read articles online That some of them say that the eart is 4.5 or 4.6 billion years old but the sun is like 4.5 billion all the way to 5 billion years old. How is the earth going to be older than the earth in some cases? And how in the Hell do we know how old the sun is anyways without being able to even get close to it? If we have to use carbon found in rocks on earth to try to tell it's age then without getting inside the sun to get actual hard evidence then how do we know? I think that it is all guesses that's what science is mostly about. It's just that science can't rely on the bible or God and they have to have answers to everything even if it is made up. Why are there no signs of life throughout the whole universe that we have discovered and seen with the hubble telescope? Because God doesn't want us to see it.We are a society of sin and he doesn't want us going to other planets spreading sin and messing up their land like we do ours. Do you ever think to yourself that why is everthing so far from us and why is it that it seems like it was designed for us never to make it to any other planets? Read it all in Genesis and what Adam and Eve did. That is why because we are sinful. Anyways these are some questions that should be asked and like I said the earth is only about 6,000 years old like the Bilbe says.
Good Day.

Answer 3

Unfortunately, the age cannot be computed directly from material that is solely from the Earth. There is evidence that energy from the Earth's accumulation caused the surface to be molten. Further, the processes of erosion and crustal recycling have apparently destroyed all of the earliest surface.

The oldest rocks which have been found so far (on the Earth) date to about 3.8 to 3.9 billion years ago (by several radiometric dating methods). Some of these rocks are sedimentary, and include minerals which are themselves as old as 4.1 to 4.2 billion years. Rocks of this age are relatively rare, however rocks that are at least 3.5 billion years in age have been found on North America, Greenland, Australia, Africa, and Asia.

While these values do not compute an age for the Earth, they do establish a lower limit (the Earth must be at least as old as any formation on it). This lower limit is at least concordant with the independently derived figure of 4.55 billion years for the Earth's actual age.

Answer 4

4 billion

Answer 5

The earth is closer to 4,600,000 years old. It formed from the same cloud of dust and gas that the sun did 5 billion years ago.

Answer 6

Our Mother Earth is approximately 4.5 billion years old. This is an estimate based derived by comparing the content of isotopes of lead amoung terrestrial and extra-terrestrial souces (e.g. meteorites).

Answer 7

The earth is around 4.57 billion (4.57×109)[1] years old.

Answer 8

well, approximately it is 4 billion years.

Answer 9

As old as the entire universe,since mass is mostly energy and energy only transfers making all mass the same age...tom science

Answer 10

4 billion +...unlike the indoctrinated weak minds would have you to believe.I believe science,not fanatic's.

Answer 11

around 4.5 billion years old.
