As a child I’ve always had a fascination for Dinosaurs, ever since watching the first Jurassic Park movie. As I grew older, I began to truly understand how old these behemoths were. For example, did you know the Tyrannosaurus was over 60 million years old! Or that the Tyrannosaurus and the Stegosaurus were never alive at the same time!
It gets you thinking, how do we even begin to date the remains of creatures that so old, even older than our pre-evolved ancestors? This is where we use Radiometric Dating.
