People today are taught that the earth is 4.5 billion years old, and that this is a firmly-established scientific fact. But over time, society has had quite different ideas about the age of the earth. So where did that number (4.5 billion years) come from? Is it as firmly rooted in the scientific method as people have been led to believe? And is it actually correct?

Join geologist Dr Tas Walker for an insightful discussion of the history of the age of the earth. Learn how it has changed (drastically!) over time, and what drove the change. Most importantly, discover why the age of the earth even matters to the lives of everyday people.
