that there were equal amounts of the two uranium isotopes U235 and U238 at

the time of the Big Bang. At present, there are 137.7 U238 atoms for each atom

of U235. We know that the half-life of U235 is 0.71 billion years, and the

half-life of U238 is 4.51 billion years, we used this information to determine the

age of the universe. We started by looking at the problem mathematically and

then after figuring out the age of the universe with the above information. We

proceeded to look for other sources of information about the age of the universe

with supporting data. The two largest sources that were found were a Seattle

University professor and a theory proposed by Edwin Hubble.

Using the information above, we

The physical interpretation of the Hubble time is that it gives the time for the
