STAR older than the Universe | METHUSELAH Star (HD 140283) | Oldest Star in The Universe

Star older than the universe discovered that may prove big Bang Theory wrong!!!
According To the Big Bang Theory, our universe came into existence nearly 13.8 billion years ago. Just Before the Big Bang, the whole universe was in the form of an infinitely dense point.
But scientists have found a star that is older than the universe itself. This Discovery has thrown the big bang theory into question.
How a star present in the universe, can be older than the universe itself? This Star could lead to a "scientific crisis".


Star older than the Universe (METHUSELAH Star) Video


 

Name of this star is, 'Methuselah Star.' Scientifically it is known as HD 140283. The Star is present at a distance of nearly 200 light years.
It has been estimated that the star Methuselah is 14.5 billion years old. It means that it is, 0.7 billion years older than the universe itself.
When the scientists analysed this star, they found that it was formed during the period when the iron element was not present in the universe in abundance as the star contained very little amount of iron content.
British physicist Robert Matthews wrote for UAE-based media outlet The National: “It’s a riddle of cosmic proportions: How can the universe contain stars older than itself?”

So my intelligent friends, what do you think? Is it possible, that the universe may contain a star, which is older than itself? What's the possibility that the Big Bang Theory is wrong. Where we are wrong in calculating the age of this star or the age of the universe itself. Time will tell the truth !
