First Age Map Of Milky Way Raises Questions About Our Origins

The first age map of the Milky Way shows that the Galaxy grew from a central point outwards or from the ‘inside out’.

Most of science assumes that the Universe came into existence from a singular point, devoid of measurements of time and space, instantly, at the moment of the ‘Big Bang.’ Where the universe will end up, has not yet been determined by any substantial theory. For the first time scientists have been able to map the age of our own galaxy, the Milky Way, by measuring the age of the giant stars.
