    A jet flies in front of thier telescope and now they know how old the universe is. I think scientists just make up this crap to keep thier jobs. I wish my job was like that, then i could say "yeah i saw a flicker of light on the way to work, which confirms my thoery that i get 10 weeks of paid vacation".
