The charter class of the University of South Carolina School of Medicine Greenville enrolled 53 first-year medical students in August 2012, with that number growing to 100 first-year medical students by 2015, and an ultimate 400 medical students over all four years of education.
SCIENTIFIC AGE OF THE EARTH. efore analyzing the arguments advanced by creation âscientistsâ for a very young Earth, I here summarize briefly the evidence that has convinced scientists that the Earth is 4.5 to 4.6 billion years old.
The best age for the Earth is based on the time required for the lead isotopes in four very old lead ores (galena) to have evolved from the composition of lead at the time the Solar System formed, as recorded in the Canyon Diablo iron meteorite. This model lead age is 4.54 billion years. The evidence for the antiquity of the Earth and Solar System is consistent with evidence for an even greater age for the Universe and Milky Way Galaxy. a) The age of the Universe can be estimated from the velocity and distance of galaxies as the universe expands.
