  Sharks are ^possibly^ older than the north star

    I always thought that this was because Polaris wasn’t aligned with the Earth’s axis until fairly recently.

      Its because Polaris is actually three stars in a trenchcoat, two of which are older than sharks with one of them being younger. Polaris Aa, the brightest star and what we call the North Star, is probably younger than sharks, while Polaris Ab is probably older than sharks. Polaris B is almost certainly significantly older than sharks.

  Sharks are older than the current rings of Saturn, and I’ll bet that the e-ring or f-ring (whichever one is primarily made of ice spewed out of enceladus) has been around for a few billion years.
