Thanks to James Nelson for this heads up:
Among the many contradictions
encountered by the Big Bang Theory is Methuselah, a star older than the supposed
age of the universe.
The title of this report is:
"Have we been wrong about the age of our universe all along? Astronomers are trying to understand why the universe appears to contain stars older than itself."
And from Fred Frees:
Big Bang theory wrong? Star older than Universe discovered - threat of ‘scientific crisis’

Right.
Good luck with that and what we predict will be even older galaxies and stars when the Webb telescope supersedes the Hubble after
20210301. This “star older than the universe” conundrum has occurred before,
and like the “inflationary” universe has been cured with some special “Dark
Energy” ad hoc to make it go away. Remember that the inflationary idea had to
be brought up when cosmological redshifts indicated galactic recessions hugely greater
than the speed of light.
