This photograph is of the neolithic megalith at Nabta, Egypt, a Stonehenge-like observatory built, um, 1000 years before the creation of the universe. Bishop Ussher, please come to the front desk...

The conference was attended by all eight RATE scientists, with four taking part in presenting the findings. The first RATE scientist to address the audience was Russell Humphreys, Professor of Physics. During his presentation, he shared highlights from his research on helium diffusion, strongly indicating that the age of the Earth is only about 6,000 years, explaining that the helium in radioactive crystals supports this conclusion. Humphreys and Dr. John Baumgardner built on the work of Dr. Robert Gentry, investigating helium retention in zircons.
In 2000, a group of scientists met and delineated a five year plan to investigate the apparent disparity between biblical dates and those reported from radiometric dating. The collective effort was identified as the Radioisotopes and the Age of The Earth (RATE) project.
