About the book: 2011 / What is the age of planet Earth?.. Who gives the correct answer to this question - creationists, who, based on the Old Testament, provide our planet with only six thousand years, or modern geologists, counting it as many as four and a half billion years ago?.. How accurate is the geochronological scale and absolute dating methods?.. Analysis of these issues in the light of the data accumulated by modern science leads to the idea of ​​the need to move to a fundamentally new concept of geological history and revision of absolutely all available results of stratigraphy, paleontology and geochronology. Within the framework of this concept, the history of the Earth is significantly reduced, although it does not descend to the biblical version.
