32. Um, okay....
As an amateur astronomer, I have looked through my telescope many times.

Anyone who understand physics can understand that God did not create the universe in 6 days. Indeed, some objects viewed by the Hubble Space Telescope are objects which are being seen by the light they shined millions of years ago. In other words, it took literally millions of years for the light of those object to reach the cameras of the Hubble Space Telescope.

The Bible is a lot of things, but it's a really poor science book, since the earth is much much more than the 6-12 thousand years old as biblical literalists would have us believe.
