    @neiltyson Does everyone in the universe (assuming others scattered around universe) agree on the age of the universe?

        I think you've mistaken my age. However, forgive me, I wasn't saying it would be easy. Just showing confidence that it can be fixed.

        Can we calculate in space where the big-bang originated from? So we can make a pilgrimage there and go "wow, it all started right here"? 🤔

        You are already at the origin. The big bang made then origin expand to become our present universe.
