What is Relative vs. Absolute Rock Dating about?

Scientists use the principles of relative dating and absolute dating to determine the age of rocks and geological events. Relative dating relies on the law of superposition and the ordering of rock layers to determine which rocks are older or younger than others. Absolute dating uses radioactive decay and half-life calculations to determine the precise ages of rocks and fossils in numbers of years. Together, relative and absolute dating methods provide scientists with tools to reconstruct geological history
