How do you know you are right since you have no idea how to accurately measure anything over periods of let’s say 80 million years. Think how illogical it is to assume that this earth would be so stable over a period of 80 million years that measurements can accurately be assessed by data that we have developed over the last 80 years.

If those measurements are no good, then neither are the measurements of the estimates of how long it will take for high-level radioactive waste to decay to save levels, or wheather our nuclear warheads will detonate the way they were designed to.

>>>>>>> WHY do you suppose we constantly TEST them, and spend MILLIONS on supercomputers to model the aging? Did you not know the largest supercomputers in the US arsenal do nuclear simulation precisely for this reason?

FYI, I WORK on these sort of computers, and have installed several where the nuclear and weather and climate change models run on.

Garbage in, garbage out
