I accept the evidence we have for an old universe.
Some examples, non-exhaustive list:

- old trees (tens of thousands of years old)

Just googled what is the age of the oldest tree on earth. The answer:

'The Great Basin Bristlecone Pine (Pinus Longaeva) has been deemed the oldest tree in existence, reaching an age of over 5,000 years old. The Bristlecone pines' success in living a long life can be attributed to the harsh conditions it lives in.'

People also ask
How old is the oldest tree in the world 2020?
5,070 years
An even older specimen of bristlecone sampled by Schulman in the White Mountains before he died was also crossdated by Tom Harlan, but not until 2009. This sample was also from a living tree, so the tree is aged 5,070 years as of 2020; this unnamed tree is currently the oldest verified living tree in the world.

Day 4: And God made two great lights: a greater light to rule the day; and a lesser light to rule the night: and the stars. And he set them in the firmament of heaven to shine upon the earth, to rule the day and the night and to divide the light and the darkness. And God saw that it was good. And the evening and morning were the fourth day. God also said: Let the waters bring forth the creeping creature having life, and the fowl that may fly over the earth under the firmament of heaven.

Don't waste your time on Dankward. He's a Modernist who prefers to accept the fabricated evidence of atheistic science to the testimony of Sacred Scripture. It's clear that the earth was made before the sun, moon, and stars. One COULD argue for an older earth (per the Holy Office under St. Pius X) based on the idea that "day" might mean something other than a 24-hour day due to the sun not having been created yet. But human beings have been around only for 6,000 years or so. And the earth was created first and the center of creation, and the rest of the universe created around it later. To deny that is heresy.

I think the lightyears concept is false. When any one sees starlight it is current to that time, not from lightyears or lightyears away. It may be far but it is a simple measure of distance away at a time, also as that part of the 24 hour cycle, and the stars all rotate around the Earth in 24 hours. When Sirius is up in the sky and going around, it is right then at that time that the light transmission is and is seen. The lightyears idea is illogical and heliocentric. The way time works, the past has been dismissed and is being dismissed even from moment to moment. Time is current to now and so is the light.

As to space, rockets have only so much capacity and the capacity of the Saturn V was hugely exaggerated. Communist China and ʝʊdɛօ-Masonic controlled NASA can't reach the moon with any rocket. In the City of God, St. Augustine wrote about deceiving spirits and the power of deceiving spirits, etc., and JPL and NASA are both Satanically influenced, i.e., they are communicating deceptions and are in the service of deceiving spirits.

Light is a wave and a particle which travels through a distance through space over a time.

Its speed can be measured accurately. We also know the distance to the stars and thus can find out how ling it takes for light to arrive at an observer.

A wave is a movement of a medium. Nothing doesn't move. To say otherwise, like physicist do since 1905, is simply nonsensical.

Yes, the speed of light can be measured. The distance of stars cannot be measured. Given Einstein's lot says heliocentrism and geocentrism cannot be confirmed by science, then the distance of stars, calculated only by the heliocentric method, is mere speculation.

Your Big Bang age for the stars then, cannot be confirmed. But if one believes in God's Word then all stars were created visible on Earth immediately which means one cannot age the universe by the stars. The only diastance-age man's science can measure is the light from exploding stars that could have taken no more than 6,000 to be seen on Earth, if God's word is true that is. So Dankward, its you or God. I will stick with God.
