How to find the Age of Universe | What is the Age of the Universe

UniverseThe scientists used to estimate that the age of the universe until 1999 is around 7000 to 20000 million years. On the other hand the age of the universe can be 1370 years. This calculation is possible through the Hubble telescope. Here is a short story for this telescope. In the year 1920, a famous scientist, Edwin Hubble had discovered an interesting and wonderful issue. It is that the stars, planets and the Milky Way’s are moving away from each other from time to time and the objects that are far away are spreading very quickly. He also discovered an equation for that calculation called v=Hod. The Ho in this equation called as the Hubble constant. It is through this the age of the universe can be calculated. Moreover, it is possible by counting the distance between the stars. For this the power of the telescopes is not sufficient and so he started a project in the year 1993 to calculate the age of the universe in the year 1933. Through this project the distance between the Milky Way’s and the human beings is calculated in a perfect way. By this the equation is constant at 71 Km/sec MPC. By this the age of the universe is calculates as 200 million years and estimated as 13700 million years. The same age is been recorded even after 2003 is a wonder and amazing issue.
