So our Sun is about halfway through its life. But don’t worry. It still has about 5,000,000,000—five billion—years to go.

   How old is the Sun?

   • Our Sun is 4,500,000,000 years old. That's a lot of zeroes. That’s four and a half billion. How do we know the Sun's age? How do we know how old it is? We look at the age of the whole solar system, because it all came together around the same time. To get this number, we look for the oldest things we can find. Moon rocks work well for this.
