There is absolute age and “perceived age.” They can be one and the same or different. I say they are the same. But which is which?

Our sun, however, only started to form about 5 billion years ago,

So before the Sun formed was it the Skim Milky Way?

“These galaxies underwent a big change in mass”

Don’t we all when we get older.

[UCANSEE2]

“Our Sun was Late to the Milky Way’s Baby Boom Party”

If it had formed at the beginning, we would all have been dead for 5 billion years.

[UCANSEE2]

“It shows that these galaxies underwent a big change in the mass of its stars over the past 10 billion years, bulking up by a factor of 10, which confirms theories about their growth.”

Steroids.

Born way after the Baby Boom.

Does that mean we're a Millennial solar system?

If so, it would explain a lot more than our cosmological situation.
