N2 - The Hubble constant enters big bang cosmology by quantifying the expansion rate of the universe. It is shown that the standard technique for estimation of Hubble's constant is statistically inconsistent and results in a systematically too low value. An alternative, consistent estimator of Hubble’s constant is presented resulting in a change in estimate of 1.2%. The new estimate implies that the universe is 170 million years younger than previously thought.
