The shrinking sun: The sun is shrinking at a rate of about 5 to 6 ft. each day, losing both mass and diameter. If you reverse the shrinking, a larger sun is not a problem, if the earth is only 7,000 to 10,000 years old. But, if it is billions or even millons of years old it creates some problems. First, the temperature on earth would have been to hot for life to form. Also, that drastic of mass change would upset the fine gravitational balance that keeps the earth at the right distance for life to survive.
Receding moon: The moon is slowly pulling away from the earth, a few inches each year. Reverse this and the moon would be so close to the earth it creates problems, unless the earth is young and not millions of years old. Based on the "Inverse square law" we know that the tides would be extremly destuctive, washing all the way up to Chicago, quickly eroding the continents. These tides also effect drag on the earths rotation. This added friction would (if the Earth is millions of years old) result in lunar destruction or eradictate life on earth.
The cooling of planets: Jupiter and Saturn are cooling off twice as fast as they gain heat from the Sun. At some point these planets should reach equilibrium, gaining and losiing heat at the same rate. This would have already happened if the universe was billions of years old.
Comets: Comets are composed of frozen gases and small rocks, during their orbit they lose gas and rocks, which is the tail we see. Through time we see less and less comets which indicates the unvierse must be young. Also, if the universe was billions of years old they should have lost all their gases and debris. Comets only last about 10,000 years. Atheists often say "we have new comets coming in from the Ort cloud". In the 1950's a Dutch astronomer proposed (he wishes, hoped) that there was a great shell of comets out there putting in new ones all the time. He said this Ort cloud is 50,000 A.U. away (1 A.U. = distance from sun to earth, around 93,000,000 miles)It's really hard to see Pluto, and that's 39 A.U. away. You certainly can not see a comet that is 50,000 A.U. away. The truth is, no one has ever seen the Ort cloud. Ort never saw the Ort cloud. The whole thing is based on a mathematical mistake, there is no Ort cloud.
Exploding Star Remains Don't Add Up to Billions of Years.
Stars are blowing up every once in a while, and it seems to happen about every 30 years or less. When you looks through the heavens (space) we find less than 300 super nova rings (dead stars). That's only about a few thousand years worth. If the universe is billions of years old then why aren't there more super nova rings? At that age there should be millions of them.
Red Stars to White Dwarfs. Red stars eventually change to white dwarfs but it doesn't take billions of years.
All the ancient astronomers described Sirius as a red star. For example Cincero in 50 b.c, and Ptolemy in 150 a.d. recorded it as a red star, saying it was redder than mars. Today Sirius is a white dwarf. That alone demonstrates how it does not take billions of years for this to happen.
Saturn's Rings. Saturn has rings on it, but they are slowly moving away from the planet because they are unstable. Saturn's rings are indication that it's not billions of years old. The rings would not be that close to the planet if it was billions of years old. The rings would be gone by now if the planet was billions of years old.
Lunar soil. The dirt on the moon's surface does not show the amount of soil mixing it should have, if the moon were very old. Lunar isotopes. Short-term radioactive isotopes (uranium 236 and thorium 230) have been found in the collected moon rocks. These isotopes do not last long and rather quickly turn into lead. If the moon were even 50,000 years old, these short-life radioisotopes would long since have decayed into lead. The moon cannot be older than several thousand years.
Dust on the moon. When things spin though space, they collect dust. Scientist said 1 inch of dust should accumulate on the moon in 10,000 years. When they first landed on the moon, they thought the dust would be at least mile deep, since they thought it was billions of years old. When they landed on the moon the dust was only 3 or 4 inches deep. But of course the time they thought it took for 1 inch can not be relied on as accurate since when they estimated it, we had never been on something as big as the moon to study dust collection. But if the moon was billions of years old, it would certainly have collected a lot more dust.
