It is not too late to get ready to party like it was 4977 BC!
You still have a couple of days to plan your bash.
What the heck am I talking about?
THIS!
April 27, 4977 B.C.:
Universe is created, according to Johannes Kepler
On this day in 4977 B.C., the universe is created, according to German mathematician and astronomer Johannes Kepler, considered a founder of modern science. Kepler is best known for his theories explaining the motion of planets.
Take that Creationists! Take that Scientologists! Take that EVERYBODY! Boy, I bet you feel silly for celebrating Earth Day now, huh? April 27th is the day! Happy 6,990th Birthday Earth!
What? I’m sorry, what?
Oh.
As for Kepler’s calculation about the universe’s birthday, scientists in the 20th century developed the Big Bang theory, which showed that his calculations were off by about 13.7 billion years.
I take it all back.
Sorry to have bothered you.
But I bet it was still created on April 27th.
