THE MALTA COSMOLOGY TEMPLATE

Chapter 2 - Moment Zero 

PARTS

Part 5 - The age of the Universe

ARGUMENT 0220

• CURRENT COSMOLOGY MODEL: According to the most recent measurements and observations, the Big Bang occurred approximately 13.75 billion years ago, which is thus considered the age of the Universe. (Wikipedia 27 Mar 2012)

• The Current Cosmology Model has a best estimate for the age of the Universe.
• The Malta Cosmology Template has no best estimate for the age of the Universe.
• Arising from this there are two options:

• OPTION 1: Take the age of the Universe to be as estimated in the Current Cosmology Model. 
• OPTION 2: Don't take the age of the Universe to be as estimated in the Current Cosmology Model.

• There is no current point in opting for Option 2 so Option 1 is preferred.

• Moment Zero was 13.75 billion years ago.
