Hebrew year
5772 began at sunset on 28 September 2011 and will end on 16 September 2012, so the universe is 5772 years old.
Ussher deduced that the first day of creation began at nightfall preceding Sunday, October 23, 4004 BC, in the proleptic Julian calendar, near the autumnal equinox. So the universe is 6015 years old this Sunday, October 23, 2011 AD.
I was born in 1957. So the
