How many times longer than the length of one year is the age of the universe?
Len [333]
No one can really tell exactly how old the universe is. However, scientists have attempted to estimate the time by using the concept of Doppler effect which depends on the frequency of the stars and their relative velocities. From literature, the universe is about 13.82 billion years old. Thus, the age of the universe is 13.82×10⁹ times longer than a year.
