  2. Age of the universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_the_universe

    In physical cosmology, the age of the universe is the time elapsed since the Big Bang.Astronomers have derived two different measurements of the age of the universe: [1] a measurement based on direct observations of an early state of the universe, which indicate an age of 13.787 ± 0.020 billion years as interpreted with the Lambda-CDM concordance model as of 2021; [2] and a measurement based ...

    Date Gya (billion years ago) Event 1 Jan: 13.8: Big Bang, as seen through cosmic background radiation, which would have been last emitted 14 minutes after midnight : 19 Jan 13.1

  4. Timeline of the early universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the_early_universe

    The timeline of the early universe outlines the formation and subsequent evolution of the Universe from the Big Bang (13.799 ± 0.021 billion years ago) [1] to the present day. An epoch is a moment in time from which nature or situations change to such a degree that it marks the beginning of a new era or age .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem

    Rather than specifically handling this special case, the initial design simply specified an arbitrary time-out date in the future with a default configuration specifying that requests should time out after a maximum of one billion seconds. However, one billion seconds before the 2038 cutoff date is 01:27:28 UTC on 13 May 2006, so requests sent ...

    The most distant galaxy observed as of October 2016, GN-z11, has been reported to be 32 billion light-years away, [66] [82] a vast distance made possible through spacetime expansion (z = 11.1; [66] comoving distance of 32 billion light-years; [82] lookback time of 13.4 billion years [82]).

    The epoch CÐ −43.2683 was 10 (−43.2683) seconds, which represents the Planck time since the Big Bang (Time Zero). There were an infinite number of cosmological decades between the Big Bang and the Planck epoch (or any other point in time). The current epoch, CÐ 17.6389, is 10 (17.6389) seconds, or 13.799(21) billion years, since the Big ...
